Wanted: Single speed spacers

Posted on
  • just a little winter bike project, in need of a few single speed spacers, whatever condition. if you fancy doing me a huge favour and chucking them in the post to me i will happily pay for the spacers/trouble or buy the forum a beer! cheers, ross

  • I'll send you a set. You can have 1.2mm or 2.0mm. Your pick.

  • thanks, pmed

  • I've just realised that what I'm offering probably isn't what you need. I've got an envelope addressed to you with a packet of chainring spacers inside. But that's not what you want, is it? You want cassette spacers, right?

  • yeah sorry i didnt not make myself clear, it was cassette spacers. thanks everso much through none the less!

  • could i have those chain ring bolts ^^^^^^^^

    Nah, it's not your fault; I'm the culpable party. I was too eager to get rid of something I'll never use. Should have checked.

    So...Skelator's still on the hunt for spacers - cassette spacers. Meanwhile, I'm looking for answers. Specifically, how is it fair that my noble altruistic intentions were rewarded by making an arse of myself in public? :-)

    This is another mixup waiting to happen...

    I was offering Skelator chainring spacers: little metal washers which go in between the spider and the chainring, allowing you to adjust chainline. They're not bolts.

  • Bump.

    I would also like to echo the OP and ask for some rear axle spacers (moving sprocket outwards). I need to make up 20mm (ish), and don't want to flip the chainring onto the inside of the cranks.

    You can use a piece of plastic/nylon piping cut to size, it is more that strong enough and available in pretty much any DIY/builders store.

    Or if you want the spacers just ask in your local bike shop, they normally have a few in the work shop - and usually give them to you for free.
