Devilock:
What's the axle length?

oldtired:
ok,  us type bb   :LolLolLolLol: missed the bit about it being a opc on a goose  :idiot2:  :LolLolLolLol:  (click knobhead button and send to me ;D )

in the kit  you have two large washers , the bigger one needs to go between the chain ring and the bit that screws on the axle   with the notches in it ,  have you used the new cups that came with the new crank? some of the older ones can be deeper ,




chain ring  washer screwy on bit (proper name escapes me at the mo)  :LolLolLolLol: 

oldskoolg60:
Oldtired,  you may have solved it for me, I didnt use the new cups, I used the existing ones, I'll knock the old ones out, then try it. If it solves it, I'll knock myself out too for being a fool.  here's hoping. Cheers guys.

BMXOAP:
Common problem in the days of 44t rings. Best way is a decent 3pc with sealed bb. Much better for getting the spacing right. Be careful it doesn't throw out chain alignment and start the chain rubbing on the seat stay near the freewheel. Sometimes need an extra washer in the rear wheel to stop that happening.
