    Thanks! Space is limited, so no pulleys, I also want it so be smooth so I won't feel the notches of the chain as i pedal. I can shape the plastic to have a gradual ramp, so that lowers that affect. Chain guides like these, with the same plastic, are used on down hill mountain bikes and 3-wheel...

    The head tube one is perfect, and that's good for this style bit. The bottom bracket is slightly (.01") undersized and that will make it a nice tight fit

    Just ruining a perfectly good set of cranks I have 6 layers cut of the center, which is the width needed for the bottom bracket. Some more parts, including the bottom bracket will be in on Thursday or Friday of next week. I can't cut anymore till I glue and drill those 6 layers, so I'll be...
