power disk & chain alignment - eh ?

(1/3) > >>

kdw712:
so xmas hols started today & i had some tinkering time  :santa_afro:

i began happily bolting bits on and then i tried to set up the rear wheel for the chain etc
i noticed it was rubbing the stay and that it also had a offset between freewheel and chain ring

oh crap !   :wtf:

so after a lot of fannying around the only solution is this ......



chain ring inside the power disk which looks pants frankly

so whats wrong ? i can't get the disk any nearer the BB or do i need to look at the free wheel end ?
or give up and buy a 43t tuf neck sprocket and bin power disk  :santa_cry:

help ............

rakas17:
dunno about solving your problem but i'm loving the pitbulll....  used to have one on my mid school bully piston.. :santa_afro:

Bigplinky:
Put a washer on the inside of the chainstays (one each side to keep the back wheel central) this will spread the rear triangle and give you clearance.



Cheers

Andy

kdw712:
andy i have a washer on the freewheel side which has helped
guess the disk will have to stay that way  :santa_cry:

Rakas got the pitbull from cyclesport they are £6.50 along with the ACS boa's - bargain !  :santa_afro:

ORB:
yeah, i build up the inside of the stay with washers when this problem occours.
