I recall you too have a 5 spot. Would you mind doing me a favour and telling me how many spacers you have on the drive side of the BB - assuming you have an external shimano BB fitted.

I am having a nightmare setting up the front mech so it's not rubbing and want to check the chain line is correct. 2 spacers gets me closest, but is more than the 47.5-50mm recommended by shimano. The sag makes a big difference too which is unhelpful when you're doing it on a stand.

Thanks in advance.

Which raises the tantalising question of how you have suddenly managed to stumble across something which has evaded you for the best part of 2 years?

Tardy...positively tardy!

Bizarrely it only rubbed on the stand. When riding it, it was fine - must be due to the sag.

Still have mine, still love it.

1 1/8. Last year of the 'taco' models. A steal from crc for only £750. I previously had a whyte 46 which was one of the worst bikes I've owned. I essentially did a frame swap.
