Adam-Griffin Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Just weight as far as i'm aware. Have you got all the Spacers and stuff on the bash plate ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sponge Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 It's normal... seriously.Pretty much always the case with bashplates. The older bashplate models like on the old T-Pros, 2004 Python, Koxx Levelboss, Monty frames... those have a slight little bit sticking further out on the right side of the bashplate.. But I think the newer gen bashplates don't really bother with thisIt's fine because imagine smashing the bashplate on a wall... it's not going to hit the freewheel despite how far right it is because the bashplate is a stopper that prevents the freewheel from being touched. You may hit the freewheel if you land at a really odd ODD angle.. however, straight-on, it's not gonna hit.*** Unless of course, your current bashplate was so mashed by the previous owner that it has receded towards the BB shell somehow?In any normal case, your freewheel should be protected.Post some pictures up and I'll be able to help out more.
