Ok, I searched and couldn't find the answer I was looking for so...
Finished my first bike, total noooob to all this but understand the basics. My chainline is out and its making a really irritating clicking noise which I want to get rid of. My front chainring is further out than my rear sprocket, but there isnt enough clearance to swap the ring onto the other side of the spider, and I don't want to buy another bottom bracket as there will be the same clearance problem (I think).
I know I can shift my hub by swapping the spacer then re-dishing, but that seems like a lot of work and don't want to fuck it up. So, is it possible to put a spacer between the hub and the sprocket the push the sprocket further towards the correct chainline? Where can I get one of these (if they exist)?
