Title: Sugino spider on redline loose ball spindle
Post by: funkyfresh on October 29, 2017, 08:00 AM

Having problem with fitting a sugino spider to a Redline loose ball BB spindle. I can space out the spider from the drive arm correctly.

But the hole through the spider is about 5mm larger than in diameter the spindle itself. Am I missing some sort of of tubular space that "pads" out the diameter of the spindle so that the spider is held concentrically on the spindle?

Sounds like you need a top hat washer mate... something like this...
