i've a slightly warped profile imperial ring,it's warped enough for the chain to be slack then tight as it spins,,any ideas as to how i can straighten it before the rubber mallet comes out????
cheers...priv
-
undo the bolt that screws into the crank arm and see if that cures it? Profiles sometimes have a mismatch on the two faces here (spindle hole and chinring bolt hole)
If it does then use really fine washer(s) to shim the gap between crank arm and chainring :daumenhoch:
:) DINGO :)

to check how warped it is lay it on a piece of glass, (table/window ect...) it will show if its warped or if the bolt is pulling it across :daumenhoch:
:) DINGO :)
