Title: Top hat washer
Post by: wildon on February 22, 2010, 10:30 AM

Alans have top hat washers for £3 but there are 3 sizes.  What size do i need to fit a normal disc/spider onto flights?
• 23.8 to 22mm.
• 23.8 to 19mm.
• 22.2mm to 19mm.

19mm spindle but you'd have to check your Sprocket/Spider for the other dimensions.

What disc/spider will you be fitting? Old school ones will usually be 23.8 down to 19mm.Try to get the shortest washer possible as longer ones don`t sit flush against the arm spindle boss.
