Chain Issues - Mod Bikes With Wide Bb


Greetings

Recommended Posts

All the new bikes form 'Deng & Co.' seem to be fitted with an echo bb. These are only available in 128mm. My zoo doesn't seem to work with a bb that wide, kept ripping chains because they ran diagonally. I am now getting a mod typhoon, and want to change the bb because mine is already pretty crooked. Will an Echo BB be ok with the GU, even though the same width didn't work with a python? Anyone else had a similar problem? What bb do you have in your python?

My mate rides a GU typhoon mod with one of those new echo BB's and the chain line is fine, however a specific Echo ISIS BB tool is required to fit the BB (£8 of tarty bikes), which makes it a bit over-priced for what it is if you ask me. Its only to be used with a fixed front sprocket though as theres not enough room for a freewheel with this BB. It will also give perfect chain line for all Echo rear hubs too.

I use a koxx BB on a Zoo Pibull if you thinks thats of any help!!!
