Hi, I bought a TKM chassis (50mm axle) and noticed when I turn the axle, it is restricted most of the time by the brakes catching. I've noticed that as I turn the axle with the pads out, the brake disc wobbles slightly and appears marginally thinner in places.

Are there any ways that I can tell if it's the disc warped, or if the brake disc carrier is bent at all? I may need to order a new disc and see if that helps, but that means taking the axle out?? Which I have never done before...
Thanks.
