I'm not exactly sure what your problem is, you need to include more detail, maybe a picture, but offhand I'd say it sounds like the wrong bottom bracket.

Well, with Profile cranks, the axle "floats" from side to side depending on how much you tighten the crank bolts.

If what I'm reading is "correct" you either need to move the axle towards one side, or basically, you need a longer axle.

Go to www.profileracing.com and go to the CONTACT link.

They also have a forum where you can ask specific questions.
