Problem

Cause?

solution

Assembly
too tight

• Bottom bracket

shell too wide

• Bottom bracket

shell not faced

• Bottom bracket

shell threads mis-
aligned

• “Stack” of parts is

wrong

Face the bottom bracket shell

to remove all paint and
square the surface.

Make sure the bottom bracket

shell is within tolerance (see
page 6).

If shell is faced and tolerance

is correct, remove the 1.0
mm spacer and reassemble.
If this does not correct the
problem, change the stock
elastomer washer on the left
side to the thinner, 2.5 mm
(available as an accessory-
see your dealer).

If this assembly is loose, switch back

to the standard 3.5 mm elastomer.

Assembly
too loose

• Bottom bracket

shell is too narrow

• Bottom bracket

shell not faced

• Bottom bracket

shell threads mis-
aligned

• “Stack” of parts is

wrong

Face the bottom bracket shell

to remove all paint and
square the surface.

Make sure the bottom bracket

shell is within tolerance (see
page 6).

If shell is faced and tolerance

is correct, add an additional
1.0 mm spacer (available
as an accessory- see your
dealer) to the left side and
reassemble.

If this assembly is too tight, change

the stock 3.5 mm elastomer to a

2.5 mm elastomer, available as an

accessory- see your dealer.

Chain-line
incorrect

• Incorrect bottom

bracket shell align-
ment

• Incorrect chain-

rings

• Incorrect spacers

on axle

If the chain-line is incorrect,
shifting performance may be
impaired. The 1.0 mm spacers
can be moved from side-to-
side or removed as necessary,
as long as correct bearing
adjustment is achieved. The
spacer arrangement used in
this manual should result in a
chain-line of 43.5 mm.
