You either bent the axle or hosed the bearing seat. Try replacing the axle. It’s a simple set screw. Take it to a hardware store and see what fits. ---

I’d guess the bearing seat got warped. ---

Like JHB said its gotta be a bent axle or warped bearing seat. ---

If you go to the store to look for a replacement axle, I would start with an M4 x 0.7 set screw. Once you find those, then you just need to match the length of the screw which is probably 12mm or 20mm. (Not that familiar with the Horizon) ---

If the axle actually got warped, it will be visible when you roll it on a flat surface… if it’s in fact not bent, try swapping out the axle sides and or try another bearing. If all doesn’t work then it’s definitely warped bearing seat.
