Use order of operations. If you don't know order of operations, you shouldn't be trying to figure things like this out. Get your GED. knowledge is power!
Def start with the front. Unless your chainline is wicked off, it'll give you a good reference point to let you know if your math is somewhat correct.
Actually that would be from the
inside of the dropout to the
centerline of the cog.
And wouldn't the chainline be closer to 52mm (45.35 hub + 7.05 DA cog)? Thats about what I got with my fixed Cross-Check. In reality, theres a bit of variation from the advertized values.
And I don't even have a GED.
