The shoulder (fixed side) is the chainring side. So you can still tighten up the BB when both arms are on.

But ..... if you have problems with the chainring hitting the frame, and you have to mess about with it, there should be no problems fitting it the other way round if that works better. It will just be a bit of a pain if the BB comes loose.

Also, if you do need more chainring / frame room you can always try putting the chainring on the other side of the spider.

Or, you could get lucky and it will all just fit!

Looks good, is that going on an 88 Haro Master?

I'll have a guess at one of the '88 STreetbeats  ???

Tioga Beartrap II for the headset - best old school headset and still available (only now they have a steel washer) :daumenhoch:

You are correct sir. :4_17_5:

It's a Aqua & Chrome 88 streetbeat, well it will be when it's finished.
