I was thinking it have easy build but got hit by a problem. I have Tiagra 4600 BB and Tiagra 4603 chainset (triple) but chainset was converted to double. So the problem occurs (or maybe just me) then I slide chainset full, the left side has way more free space compared with other double setups. I have looked at manual documentations and looks like for triple setup should be a 3mm left and 6.5mm right spacer; this is first time I see.
So the question would be: should I get spacers as per documentation or install chainset not pushing fully on and install left crank arm as it is with maybe alternative spacers just keeping necessary space?
£10 additional cost just to get spacers :(
