Default Binary cam lean?

I changed my 101st modules from 29 to 29.5. Was getting excessive wear on my cable serving, checked the draw stop & it was right, checked the string stop on the module, was right to. put a dab of white-out on serving so when I drew back I could see on the module where it was rubbing. It was on the module below the string stop. HMM nick in the module mabey?
I reserved the cable, put new modules on, timmed it, made 4 shots, it started doing it again. Went through this process 3 or 4 times switchin mods, re-serving, and timming etc.....So being the expert-tech-superbow-junkey I am, I put a peice of cammo duct-tape on the area where it was rubbingIt works!!!....for now.
After further inspection I noticed a verry slight lean in th bottom cam. How can I fix this? Its not cutting the serving real bad but it is premature wear, about a 1/8-1/16 area. It never did it with the 29" mods, so could the verry slight lean be causing it? Its kinda got me agrivated cuz its only a couple months old and I paid alota money for it.........but never the less "If ya cant duct it,................

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is it even possible to correct cam lean with a binary? There's no yoke system, so how would you compensate for it? For what it's worth, I'm going through a similar issue with my 101st. Read my thread a few done from this. Basically, my cables are almost entirely missing my draw stop modules, causing the cables to be pinched, and creating excessive wear on the serving. Fun isn't it?

Shhhhh....you can't say binary and Elite in the same sentence. It makes the residents of HNI very agitated. [8D]

No, Trinaries are a High Country thing. Elite calls theirs Binaries, like Bowtech. I was just joking about it.

I called bowtech, received absolutly no help from them, cept the tech said that slight cam lean is normal.....ok? He blamed the serving wear on my serving job or the post setting was wrong,.....anyway seeing as how the problem dident start till I swapped modules from 29" to 29.5 I went back to the 29" modules and have shot several times since with no problems!!!! 29" is still comfotable for me to shoot and I only lost about 3 or 4 fps.
What ticks me off is the local dealers, (cept one who realy isent local) had no clue what the post settingsshould have been,The tech @ bowtech was a either a dummy or was having a bad day! I never had problems dealing with Bowtech/Diamond techs in the past, and probably wont in the future but he pi$$ed me off.
So in conclusion, I have found that the 29.5" modules for a 101st do not do well on MY bow, dont know why but who cares Im back in buisness. I just hope I never have to deal with that same guy @ bowtech...anyway good luck with yours MGH.
