I recently had some work done on my bike. Since getting it back from the
shop it feels like it pulls to the right. The work I had done was related to
the drive on the right side of the bike and new parts were installed. Is it
possible that this has thrown off the bike's balance? Has anyone ever
experienced this? Is there anyway to check a bike's balance and then correct
it if it is off?

Pulling to one side would either be caused by alignment problems, fork or
frame, or maybe wheels that were not all the way in and straight before
they were clamped down.

One other thing might be the problem. If the work involved the handlebars
at all, say to replace a shifter, or even to raise the bars, it might be
that one of the brake cables is too tight, literally pulling the bike to
one side. It might also be shifters, depending on brand.
