So having run the Pink Pinacolada for a wee while, everything is nicely bedded in.
So I tighten the crank bolts.
Now the left crank clips the chainstay.
Wasn't much clearance to start with, now there's none. There's about 5mm on the drive side, but less than that behind the spider. Don't think skimming the BB is gonna work.
Campag Pista cranks, Chorus 111mm (Italian) BB.
Any bright ideas?
I'm thinking about a longer BB axle with adjustable cups (ie to maintain chainline and shunt the extra spindle length to the non-drive side.)
But I can't think of any aside from the Phil and Royce, neither of which I fancy paying for.
Or is there a crankset with a more cowboy stance?
Cheers all.
