Laurence--Trials Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 About the chain rub, what sprocket are you running? i had that problem on my zoo 20" it does cut into the frame. I simpley changed the sprocket and the problem was fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dann2707 Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 Looks good LiamNNNNNNNNNN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurence--Trials Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 Okay i think i know whats wrong. Take it off, twizzle it round 180 degrees and screw it back on. It'll run VERY close to the spokes but it looks good and works with no problems. It'll probably be VERY hard to get off, i bent a steel bar getting one off my 20" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex-trials-boy Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 I had the same problem when i had my limey 20, but one way the sprocket cut into the frame and the other way the chain cut the base of the spokes and would have eventually cut through them new echo tr sprocket fixed that for me but if your using a tr at the mo then a new bb may be the only way to go By the way, Laurence the tr sprockets have an equal distance spacer on both sides i think so swaping it around wont solve the problem, just cause alot of hastle getting it off.

Sam Moore Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 looks nice, on my limey I had to run a trial tech chain, echo tr sprocket and a 122.5 mm bb for the rubbing to stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
