i hung uit on the washing line to paint it lol

[motomagII]

i think its the chainline thats causing problems now but can u remove the cog off the driver'to turn it round and or put a washer on to bring it outwards somewhat .

[Betty]

Take the cranks out and add or remove spacers behind the sprocket 

[motomagII]

i have done that but dont like it .theres barely any thread left on the chainring bolt into the crank arm.
im sure the cog can be removed but i need to know for sure and how /who has the tools looks like a really narow swpanner and chain tool needed .about 28mm or so /

[motomagII]

the cog does screw off the driver for sure neew a cone spanner and chain whip tool.INT GOT NEITHER MESSAGE TO DIGGLER ON TIS WAY LOL

[TwoBobRob]

Something's fundamentally wrong there, at worse you should be adding one washer between crank arm and sprocket, and that should only be to space the arm away from the frame if you feel the need.

Take a close up photo of the rear wheel/hub/dropout type deal, let's have a look.

this is the hub i reckon the cog is the wrong way round
if i put the arms on with top hat and 1 small spacer the arms miss the frame by 2mm but the chain line is out by quite bit hence me thinking the cog is the wrong way round

[Betty]

Greg, i've got one of those hubs in a drawer somewhere i'll go find it and have a butchers before you start taking it to bits 

I think Rob was asking for a pic of the bike upside down then we can see the alignment issue?

[motomagII]

i know mate but i have brought the wheel in off the bike to send si diggler a pic to see if its right and if he has the correct proprtioned tool lol

ive already had the axle and cassette out idiots at winstanleys had filled the cassette with that white grease stuff ?arent the supposed to run dry ?

[Dannywhac]

No grease, couple of drops of Sewing Machine or 3 in 1 oil on each pawl mech.

Don't look a great deal wrong with the chain line    Just need a spacer or two on the outside of the sprocket to put the crank are out a little

[Betty]

Nowt wrong with the hub Greg...



Profile crank arms don't angle outwards very far compared to some others it's the only thing i don't like about them, had to get my son some new cranks for this reason, ungrateful little git doesn't ride anymore so i've never got round to fitting em

[TwoBobRob]

Are there washers on both sides of that hub on the inside? Do you have to pull the dropouts apart to get the wheel in? Is the wheel easily centred when it is in?

So many questions......  

[motomagII]

yes 1 wsher both sides on hub axle
1 washer either side of hub to get it onto frame withough movement and centred

it def running noisy and not right and click occasionally under hard pressure
chain line does look to be out in real life looking at it .

[TwoBobRob]

I'm tempted to say move the whole wheel over by removing one washer and sticking it on t'other side, then dish the rim so it sits centred in the frame.

It's a bit of a bollockache but may solve your problem.

[Discostu]

Is your splined crank spindle an original profile one? Or another manafacturer?  As some of the other makes are not as long as others. Especially the titanium ones.  The trouble is some riders are obsessed with saving weight on their bikes. So they will buy a spindle that is a few grams lighter. Not realising that the reason it is lighter is coz its shorter! 

[oldtired]

was going to suggest a short spindle, can get roughly 10mm space between crank and frame on all my bikes NS and OS with my set of profiles ,    with the frame /chain line  was this frame designed  to take micro gearing?  i ask as i dont know , are rear ends designed differently to take freewheel gearing or cassette gearing?  still anew to NS myself  

[motomagII]

it was designed ofr 36 or 39 x 13/14 .ill get the fooker to work one way or another if not i may have to swap and use my profile wheel on this frame and this wheel on another but i aint beaten yet
