MAJs gay bikes [she’s in her fitness era]

Rear spacing is 130mm where the Langster is 120 so yeah will be wider.

Fwiw I had a 111mm Campagnolo (ISO?) bb on there with Sugino 75s and a 47t chainring and it didn’t foul.

mmmmmmm i might try a 113 on there , thank you for your customer support

Secondary cabal has informed me, after suggesting that I dimple the chainstay and follow the manufacturer's specifications (how one balances both of these I don’t know) that yes, the wider chain stays might need a wider bb even if the crankset says a certain size and I should just be able to slap a longer axel on

Might mess up the chain line tho

But chain line is fake?

Right?

But chain line is fake?

I am also a believer of this, I do not understand why fixie people get mad over 1mm diff in chainline but would ride a bike with 1x

this is reasuring coming from a fellow bike preformance utilitarian like yourself

I have also used a non njs BB on a DA njs crank on my fixie, fuck the rules

iirc 113mm UN55 where as recommended is 109mm JIS

Its fake, Unless it’s super off and you throw the chain.

yeah but it depends on the chain, no? 10+spd for your 1x, 7spd or 1/8" for your fixie? or am I just a sheep?

it's a 120 wheel in a 130 frame - we're looking at like 20mm or difference if i get the most snug bb i can

maybe i'm stupid but in my mind chainline is from wheel centre ? so a 107/109 bb should give you a regular chainline on a 120 wheel, no matter dropout width.

I read that the chainring catches the chainstay so why not a centaur 111mm? or going further a UN 113 ?

i dont think i know how any of these numbers work

Get a framebuilder to chop out the chainstay and replace it with an e-stay.

Get a custom crank CNC'd.

The Nature Boy All City were too sensible to consider.

Thank you again, they look great!

i think you need to ask yourself, can you live with an out of line chain now that you know?
also, the silence from a perfect chainline is the purest joy.

tbf any noise to drown out persistant london noises would be apreciated

or are you just adding to the noise?

😳

IMO chainline, toe overlap and skid patches are mathematical realities which have no interaction with the physical world as we experience it

to hear fixed jesus say these things, we're listening

We have cranks

Will finish this today, inshallah

Thank you for the tyres @spinnnout ! Just need to fit the chain and we should be… ok?

I want to do my 30 seconds each hold sun salution reps already

A pedal or two may be useful.
