Hi Guys,

First post on here, used to ride 10 years or so ago and just getting back into it on a 2009 Kona Stinky.

My question is I want to run a dual ring set up on the front.

The bike is standard and uses Raceface Ride DH cranks, I was looking last night at the clearance for a granny ring and it looks like it will foul on the E.13 chain device mounting bolts.

So can I use different cranks with a slightly different offset so the granny ring clears, or will the E.13 dual ring chain guide mount differently giving me the clearance I need?

I'm aware I will need a shifter, front mech and cable stop clamp etc, am I missing anything else?

Cheers

Gary

  • Update, if anyone else is having the same problem a bottom bracket spacer solved the problem using the same cranks.
