Not got twin pinch, but on mine the spindle had some grooves on one side, drive side and only after fitting once noticed this and that the splines were longer on one side, in the tech and rest stickies think there is a fitting guide. :daumenhoch:

I have fitted two set's and i dont know if it was luck but i never had a prob. I put it together out of the frame first to see how it whent together, then when i had worked out what went where i then re did it in the frame. from memory i think the spindle went in from the opposite side of the chain wheel. then use the spacers to line up as said earlier. sorry i cant be much more help. put a bit of grease on the bearing cups before fitting them as they can be a pain to fit. a rubber mallet will help :daumenhoch:

i have just built it up out of the frame and i think i have got it now,i slid everything onto the side where stuff cant slide on,is a rubber mallet best for putting the bearings on iwas thinking about using some pipefitters grips and pulling the 2 bearing bits together ,like crushing them together in a vice
