Sell and buy some rollerblades?

Buy a second set of handlebars.

Jokes aside you just gotta turn the wheel around.

I really like the Purist water bottles, where can I find two unbranded 22oz clear-ish bottles? I just want some plain ol bottles.

Take a ball peen hammer to the high spots on the chain

These are as close to unbranded as I’ve seen. If you search for ‘MoFlo cap’ you’ll get results of bottles that don’t mention the words specialized or purist.

Rusty, adding a single driveside washer will work. I did it to cram 8 speeds onto a 128 mm rear end once.

That problem will take care if itself after awhile. Just keep it in that gear until the noise goes away.

And use cutting oil instead of chain lube.

If you tilt the rear wheel you should be able to angle the chain enough to clear.

I did this to my beater that I respaced from 120 to 135 and added disc tabs. I should take some photos of the inside of the chainstays next time I’m in the garage

Need to either get a new crankset or pedal spacers for the dadbike to attain a higher q factor. What do people like for a 1x, 68mm bb sheel, and can retain road chainline?

motorbacon · January 1, 2019, 8:37pm

Mtb crank, 6mm offset ring

anon71759125 · January 1, 2019, 9:00pm

I need help w single speed chain line. If I’m not using square taper, how do I know it’ll be right?
Using Paul track as rear which is I think 48mm

motorbacon · January 1, 2019, 9:14pm

Spacers on freehub or behind freewheel.

Don’t over analyze it.

igor · January 1, 2019, 9:49pm

@motorbacon coming through with the double Shartq help.

anon71759125 · January 1, 2019, 11:08pm

Uh what?
Paul hub with freewheel is 48mm chainline.
Per https://www.sheldonbrown.com/chainline-single.html this is more inline for a wider mtb chainline.

How do I know that a crank will be this chainline?

motorbacon · January 1, 2019, 11:11pm

Road crank with SS ring and a ss hub with freewheel is going to be okay. You can always space the freewheel outboard a couple mm.

motorbacon · January 1, 2019, 11:30pm

Road double. Ss ring on the outside.

You’ll be okay.

Yeah I have created numerous stupid singlespeeds and all chain lines have been good enough
