Off chainline would be fine it's an 1/8 inch chain so there's room and the ability to consistently go straight would be worth it really.

cool, if it was difficult to ride no-handed before then that would explain a few things, shouldn't of been sold with the wheel like that, even for dirt cheap, I'll do it on Monday, just need to find another shitty rim

Any shitty rim will probably be lighter. I've just weighed the front 2.64kg Take away the 640g-ish for tyres and disc = near enough 2kg wheel up front :D

At least you're not rolling on marathon plus'. 1kg per tyre!

Christ. I assume caused by slapping on an extra bunch of rubber for puncture protection.

^^ yep, 6mm of protection to be precise.

I'm assuming you've got cheap tripple ring cranks, which position's the ring in?

It's the smallest ring with a chainline of 45mm

They will get changed when I get a new BB.

it'll move the chainline in, which is annoying if your already on the smallest ring. just think of all the fun you'll have being able to ride no-handed, and also better 1 handed

What's the deal with tommorow do we have enough, I'm happy to play with just 4 think Adam is in, drew will your bike be functional?

Sadly it won't. I wish there was bike part rental.

drew, there is a wheel of mine at ste's, it's disc only but you can use it for today, the hub is 135 so it'll be a bit of a squeeze but will fit with some slight frame stretching, will need tube & tyre though, I can bring these but there might be a bit of back and forth between your place

I'm cool with that I'll switch the brake now

it's quite a wide rim and my tyres are quite big too, I'll bring your tyre along too in case it's a bit big for your frame, should be ok though

You be heavily laden, lets call it weight training.

Shall I bring that rear wheel then? It's not disk only coz it has a breaking surface with groove but You wouldn't want to wear off the gray, it has 2 cogs on the back a 14 and a 22 are either of those ok might need a chain tool too, I can bring one if needed

Thanks to my frame the chain just slips on. Elevated chainstay innit.

the 22 is what I used, the 14 was just as a spacer

it's only 2 teeth different than your other wheel, no worries, you'll be faster.

Been measuring your wheel, it's set up for a chainline of 52.5mmish at the moment, so off anyway, if you want a no-dish wheel I can move it all over 14mmish or if you want correct chainline then I can move it over 6.5mm, i reckon move it over 9mm, leaves only a little dish and chainline will be closer than it has been anyway

Little dish!

big dish, cardboard box
