London Fixed-gear and Single-speed

Hi,

Brucy was nice enough to put a new freewheel on my bike. However that changed the chainline ever so slightly. I would still say that it is good but I can't cycle a mile without the chain coming off or locking out.

Would anybody with a freewheel tool who goes to East End Beers be kind enough to help me put in a freewheel spacer or two?

Speaking of freewheel spacers, would I get them in any old LBS or just the specialised ones?

Cheers

any luck fixing this lenni? was the advice any good?

Not fixed yet. I am waiting for my new crank to be delivered. (pj suggested that it isn't caused by the "bad" chainline but by my slightly bent chainring. [Is that correct , pj?] Crank and chainring are one piece so I bought a new shimano crank off ebay.)

that was tim that said about the chain.

here's hoping your BB is shimano taper.

what a pain in the arse all these variations are.
I'm just finding this out for myself, square taper JIS, square taper ISO, Octalink v1, octalink v2, ISIS and on and on.

1 type of square taper = less hassle. the bastards

Infuckingdeed. Why do manufacturers come up with so many different standards? Well, I kinda know the answer. It's what Microsoft has been doing with software for a long time because people don't care about these things. Admittedly, why should they? They want a bike that rides not a specific crank.
