question about quick release?

[momof4greatkids]

Seems to me your dh shouldn't have needed to adjust the brake pads if all you did was take your wheel off and then put it back on. As KnottedYet said you can center the wheel by loosening/tightening the nut/lever as needed to get the wheel centered.

This is the problem I had which prompted my question. After I replaced the (front) wheel and hooked up the brake, my brake was definitely rubbing. So, I had to check w/my mechanically inclined husband, he said I didn't re-apply the wheel "just right". I have to be more careful about setting it back in properly.

And ever since I did this, I cannot get my computer to work! Very frustrating. The magnet is set correctly, (toward the reciever) but it's not picking up my MPH. I'm going to make a trip to the LBS and ask them about it.

Thank you all for sharing your knowledge, I really appreciate it.
