[RBW] Re: Sugino Px on Atlantis
Hello- I run a TA cyclotouriste with 46-42-26 on my All-Rounder with 125+5 Phil BB. I probably have straighter chainstays than the Atlantis but if you use a 36 middle ring there will probably be enough clearance. The Phil BB retainers let you cheat it over a few more mm's, too.

I would like to but am not sure if it can clear the stays without a huge bottom bracket. I would run a 46-36-26, do you think a Phil 118+5 or 121+5 would work? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: Sugino Px on Atlantis
While this is no doubt true, I think sometimes folks can put a little too much emphasis on chainline, *especially* on a multispeed rig. Even on single speed setups, i'll normally just try to get the chainline reasonable, and then i don't worry about it. In my experience, chains last a long time maybe because they are good (like a KMC with riveted pins and beefy links) or because they are clean, well lubed, etc. On Oct 30, 10:46 pm, Jim Thill - Hiawatha Cyclery thill@gmail.com wrote: If you clear the stays with a long BB, you will have poor chainline.

I fit a triple cyclotourist on a frame wide enough for 60 mm tires plus fenders plus mud, with decent chainline; but it (Diamond Back Axis Team) had indentations at the right stay. Take a hammer to the Atlantis ... On Fri, Oct 30, 2009 at 8:46 PM, Jim Thill - Hiawatha Cyclery thill@gmail.com wrote: If you clear the stays with a long BB, you will have poor chainline.

works fine for me with a 126mm bb spindle On Oct 30, 7:36 pm, Andrew andrewkib...@gmail.com wrote: Does anybody here run a sugino PX on an atlantis?
