stock trials the real sport Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 I have the exact same problem with mine if you use a rear mech you have to use a different connector pin thats what i did anyway and i works fine, just the annoying noise it makes but im hoping that'll change when i get my new crankset.

ian Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 had this problem on a friends bike just put the conector pin on the other side of the chain should sort you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durkadurka Posted November 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 had this problem on a friends bike just put the conector pin on the other side of the chain should sort you out. i think im gonna take the connector pin out anyways. it seems to be a constant noise, not one, its like the singulator aint set up perfectly straight, (but it is!) i might go back to my mech and space the cage out a little bit. who knows!

durkadurka Posted November 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 tm, you fool, i am not that stoopid to have the phat split link facing the bash. seriously, sort it out! i think it is just a small rubbin on the bas, it will slowly GRIND away the bash, which in turn will cure the problem. just waiting.............

tipsy Jock Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Don't grind it! Just flip the chain ring over so theres a larger gap between the ring and guard, or alternatively whack a few spacers in between them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
