Chainset problems

Justlearning1965

Hi guys hope someone can help.
Was just trying my old hollowtech 2 chainset.
On my new frame.
I have a hell of a gap in the pedal arm.
So should i not bother with another hollowtech 2 chainset.
Wondered if spacers would be ok

All the best

Thanks mate.
Just measured them both. 68mm. Where have i gone wrong.

Either you have no spacers on the drive side, or haven't got the crank on all the way.
But from your pic impossible to say.

And you should have a safety check sticker on your extension lead.

Thanks mate.
Ive ordered a new m 590 chainset. Rushing round, Like a headless chicken yesterday.
Not a good idea doing chainsets.
Really wanted to make sure the threads were ok in the frame. They are.
Human error i think
All the best.

This is my full suspension build.
Although everything from my hybrid, Will go straight on to it (bar tires and tubes).
Why not treat myself to a new chainset. £60 including bb. Well worth it.
All the best.
