Many thanks for all the answers !!!

Phil, that is such an interesting work of research ...

Cheers

Thanks for the responses...I am using a phil wood hub and cog

Is this the neatest solution ? I ask this because it's for a really nice project. So it would be a spacer between the hub and the cog or a spacer for the axle? Also where can I buy these? Do they come in 0,5 mm? Thanks

Hi, I have a Rotor 3D Track Crankset with a 43,5mm chainline and a Phil Wood high flange fixed hub with a 42mm chainline.

I want to know the way of correcting this 1,5mm difference in my chainline.

Although I did some research I couldn't find this info.

Tusen Takk !!!

Hi everybody !!! I was offered this set of track hubs for U$S 120. I would like to know if someone in this forum knows about them or has tested them. The seller informed me that they are high end hubs manufactured in Taiwan. I later confirmed their origin from the website of the brand.

Doing some research I found the guys at BLB don´t sell their hubs but their crankset and provide the following description:

"This is one high end performance track crank that you have been waiting for.
Used by the Japanese Track Team, the RIDEA 3D Track crank is produced from the finest worldwide materials, including top quality Swiss 7150-T7 aluminium for the crank arms and German 6-4 Titanium for the spindle on the Ti version."

I have ruled out phill wood due to the high price so I had in mind a set of not very expensive Dura Ace or Paul Components. Do you consider Ridea is better than the mentioned brands?

I wish you guys tons of good rides !!!

I posted it in bikes and bits and I am trying to erase this post actually

Many thanks for the advice :) I ended up installing a Campagnolo Ach 111mm ISO bottom bracket and the chain as well so the chainline seems to run a little smoother now.

I feel I need to overtighten the hub bolts in order to keep the correct chain tension. In that sense I am affraid of damaging the dropouts that's why I thought about installing the MKS tug chain tensioner. Can you guys give your poit of view if u would install this device in a Mash?

Tusen takk :)

This is how the bike looks now, if u zoom you will see that the chain is not straight, but I am not sure if I need more or less chainline ;(

On the other hand, I haven't found anyone using a Paul Components rear Hub at the transmission database post :(

Hi mates, with all due respect I would like some advice:

I bought a second hand Cinelli Mash and the previous owner rode it with a very missaligned chainline that had a lot of noise and drag when pedaling. This is how the bike was setup when I recieved it:

Frame: Cinelli Mash Histogram 2012-2013
Crankset: Miche Primato Advanced 170mm crankarm length
Bottom Bracket: Stronglight JP400 68x110mm BSA thread JIS
Rear Hub: Paul Components
Cog: BLB

My question is: I want to achieve a perfect chainline but have no idea which Bottom Bracket model and length to buy.

I know this is a trifling question for the experts and that I am an insect that does not deserve to live or even have a bike, but your advice would be very very helpful :)

Many Thanks !!!

This is how my bike looks right...

Can someone please help me find the correct headset required for my Mash, When i checked eBay for 1 1/8 integrated headset I'm finding loads with different angles and degrees. I need something cheap and cheerful.

Hi, the OEM headset is called Columbus Compass and u can buy it here:

The flat-ended ones look very compact and aerodinamic :)

Brilliant !!!
