Thought with the number of threads there are on chainline I'd make myself useful and start something that I hope could help some of us.
By and large, it's often hard to tell anyone who's asking about their chainline just what's wrong with it without having a looksie, so thought this could be a useful place to slap down a photo of your chainline (and maybe an MP3 of it in action so you can hear it) and have others tell you what needs to be done to sort it out.
So here's mine...
I have a bit of leeway because I'm using a Miche Primato BB, as well as road double cranks, so I can adjust the axle a little, as well as shift the ring either on the inside or the outside. Now looking at the photo, I reckon it's too far inwards, but would be grateful if anyone has any comments either on the chainline or how to perfect it.
On top of this, if anyone else wants to put up photos I reckon this would be a good 'un - ones of perfect silent ones too would help, so we know what to aim for.
