Am I doing something wrong? My experience is almost exclusively with modern Deda two-bolt posts, but I find that when I start to tighten them up the final turns on the rear bolt start to change the angle significantly. I take this into account, and adjust the front accordingly, but I don't find it to be a super precise method (as it seems the final angle will be determined by how tight I make the rear bolt). What am I doing wrong?
