Is it possible to put washers behind a front chain ring to bump it out a little? I have an idea for The Gooch but don't want to break it all down this close to the deadline if it won't work.I need to gain a couple of 1/8th between the front sprocket and frame.Thanks for any help. :mrgreen:
 
should work as long as it doesnt throw the chainline out of whack with the rear sprocket...what about flipping the front sprocket?(if its "offset")
 
Thanks Markm.I haven't messed with it that much,just shouved it in the bb.I'm gonna head to the shop since it sounds plausible.Thanks. :mrgreen:
 
That one was fine.Went a little bigger :shock: .Got it worked out.I'll be posting build pics as soon as I can find my spare camera.
Thanks for the help :mrgreen: .
