  • Humph... so is it possible to space the DS crank outwards?

    The chainring is currently mounted on the inner position... I could potentially avoid the chainring bolts hitting the chinstay by mounting the chainring backwards, meaning that the bolts sit inside the little countersunk recesses on the front of the chainring, rather than the flat surfaces on the rear, however presumably this is also not a good idea?

    Probably best to just use the outer chainring position and accept that the chain-line will be very slightly out (via my eyeballing method)?

  • so is it possible to space the DS crank outwards?

    On a GXP crank, the only legitimate way to move the crank to the right is to cut material off the left side of the BB shell.

    Flipping the chainring over is OK, you'll just use the other flank of the teeth which hasn't been worn yet.
