Hi all

I've just bought a 2007 Specialized Enduro S-Works frame and a Superstar Components ISCG/BB mount double chain device, however when fitted this touches the chain stay.

Also the chain doesnt sit properly in the roller as it seems to far across - I dont want to cut it and bend it to fit - I'd rather have a chain device that fits properly, so I'm going to send it back.

Does anyone have any experience of this frame and chain device combo? Or know of a chain device that will definitely fit?

Thanks,

Chris

    this is the SL carbon frame?

    and how have you mounted the device?

    direct or with a BB to ISCG adapter?

    and the BB width is?

    Actually looking at the picture they came as standard with a chain device! It was a BB/ISCG fit - BB width is 73mm

    so what fitting are you using?

    BB mount?

    ISCG mount?

    Or an ISCG adaptor which is BB mount?

    or is it an ISCG mount?

    or is it both IE. help both by the BB and the ISCG mounts?

    they came with a bottom roller guide only.

    do you have pics of your problem?
