Guys,
It was my LBS who told me that my BB is 103mm. Since the BB was for some time in a closet, before was put in a Parallax by LBS i don't remember it's precise length, but Miche catalogs and Evans Cycles purchase order says it's a 107mm. Catalog says even more - they make them in 107mm and 110mm only. Anyhow it does not change the "tight situation". :) LBS had to put some kinda of BB spacer on a driveside to avoid rubbing against chainstay.
Anyhow, please see the messy pictures i made - https://www.flickr.com/photos/eddy_krey/sets/72157650824111998/with/16563888848/ and tell me should i be concerned or not? The chainring has like 2-3mm space from chainstay, but if you look on a picture 1 and 2 the crankarm has like 1mm space from a chainstay.
I guess the question would be - is it a mechanical incompatibility or assembling fault?
Cheers!
