Building kack handed

Right, this may be an odd one but bare with me.

Is it possible to build the bike with the chainring/chain and bits on the LEFT hand side of the bike?

I'm totaly left sided and have little feel or control of the right arm. I am doing cross on my Pompino and cant get used to dismounting, running with and remounting the bike on my right side. It diggs into my leg too. I loose balance and can't get my leg over. No sniggering at the back please.

well, the answer is yes. there was a bike on here recently set up that way and i remember it being commented on...sorry will try and be a bit more vague in future.

UTS and look back through the current projects and porn threads of this week i think...you should find it.

Here's My Gangsta

you would have to use bmx cranks though

Why should it affect the side you mount/dismount on?

Because I keep catching myself on the chainring.
getting off to the right woud be best to have the front on the left too. correct? or am I over analizing this?

You'd need a bolt-on sprocket right? cos of the thread direction. Normally pedal tightens the sprocket, with a left-hand drive you'd be *un*tightening it.

it shouldn't matter with a lockring, but yep, bolt on for the left handed win.

Ahh, with you now. Yeah, that makes sense, plus you'd not have the chainring digging into you when shouldering the bike.
