ZeroMatt Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Surely if you had a chain on it before ok it should be fine now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_pimp Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 You mean your chain line isnt straight?Have you changed anything else?Is the wheel in the frame correctly?Might need to tweak your rear cog spacing(if you can) or adjust your BB length (worst case) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcinnes Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 My chain line isnt straight but doesn't make any difference to my riding. Does it make a crackling noise when you cycle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_pimp Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 I gather its a mod Then.Is the wheel in straight?Try moving it over to see if the chain moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
