also the brake blocks aren't in the middle of the rim, think i'll have to abandon slammed and put a link back in the chain.

fugazi:
How about putting a half link in the chain to move the wheel back a tad?

JT71:
yeah, it's a half link chain anyway, so just put a link back in job done, but you should be able to slam your wheel shouldn't you?

lol, oh well, at least if i don't have it slammed i'll be able to get the wheel out without breaking the chain.

harris:
i have my frames made now to make sure everything fits,i spec everything from tyre size to rear end length bb height.
it just makes it spot on,and its not that much more to get one custom built.

motomagII:
ive just slamed the wheel on ,y brackens to make back end shorter and fooked about with it for ages to get the yre and brake to fit without rubbing anything .i have used half link but could have really done with another 3 or 4 mil clearance .with another link added thoug wheels way back and no good
