ogre Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Your bb might be a bit small, i can't see the hub axles pulling the frame in that much, what size chainring/sprocket are you running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBanks Posted July 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 (edited) 12tthe cranks are only just rubbing on the frame and its not on the sproket side Edited July 25, 2006 by mod_man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xris_x Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 there should be a reasonably even gap between the frame and cranks on both sides do u have a bottom bracket spacer fitted between your frame and bb? if so try removing it, that should shift the bb more to the non drive side. if there is little in the way of clearance on both sides then you will need a wider BB. unless anyone has a better idea?

court Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 hido what xris_x said if that doesn't work. if you have an old isis bb hanging around it should have a little spacer on each side of the axle, if so take one off and put it on the side that it is catching and this should bring it across enough.court Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chisholm Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Hey,Well when you put you're wheel in it will move it but only very very sligtly. when i tighten mine i see my frame move but not that much.If it still doesn't work then you may need to get a longer bottom bracket. BUT if there is a spacer on the drive side take it off and screw it right in. May work.Also you could try putting an old bb axle spacer on . or modifying a normal washer to fit you're bottom bracket axle and this also might work.Hope that was a help.get back to me if it still isn't working.Thanks Aidan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
