Chris King BB - Crank Wobble

Posts: 651
Replaced all of my drivetrain with new, casette, chain, rear mech and front chain rings.
Have also fitted some Chris King BB Cups to my bike as a replacement to the stock cups I had on their with my XTR (M960). Have fitted according to the instructions that came with, everything is torqued up as it should be
Now when I turn the crank there is some play when the drive side crank arm gets to the top of the revolution, have taken it all off and checked and rechecked but I can't seem to work out whats wrong. Help appreciated muchly!!

Was the axle pushed all the way through, and the correct proceedure followed for the arm preload? (which is more fiddly with XTR!)0

Yep it was, you then have the screw on the none drive side that pulls it tight when you put the non drive crank arm on it0
-
There is an extra preload screw too I believe, or some sort of locking ring.. But if all followed as you say, then I'd take to a mechanica to have a look.0

the M960 is just standard HT2 fitting.
you have used the correct number of spacers on the bb."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Yep as per the instructions that came with it, can't remember which side is which but 2 on one side and one on the other0
