My bits don't line up........
« on: June 22, 2014, 08:51 PM »
Any one have a link to a decent thread / tutorial on how to set up a 3 piece crank........ free wheel and chain ring are way off no matter which way I mount them (so to speak, obviously I'm not waving the old gentleman sausage at them.........)

I'll take a few tomorrow as I've been sat in a beer garden most of the afternoon......... I have a sneaking suspicion I may have the spindle in back to front........ ;D

I appear to have proved the rule that anything is possible if you try hard enough - put it in backwards............ ;D  Nothing to see here, move along please.......... :nickswan:
