In the process of replacing/upgrading some parts on the ammaco to make it more rideable but it has become painfully slow progress. The non driveside crank arm was seized on the axle, so I managed to get that all out but the new square taper BB wouldnt wind in. Initially thought it might have been a swiss BB or needed a threadless but after borrowing a tap and chasing out the threads its wound in easily. Now the chainline on the replacement XT crankset is way way out, I bought the same width axle as the original and the old crank looks to have right chainline on the new BB. So is this because new XT is a triple or do I need a narrower BB??! Any help would be much appreciated.
