Tried a 118mm ISIS bottom bracket today (60T chainring, 165mm cranks, 15T cog), and my chainline is off. Probably should have used a 108mm bottom bracket instead, but I can't be bothered to change it now.
Permanently set up as a single speed.
BTW, 60T is way too big and affects the fold: the chainring teeth smash into the plastic hook used to hold the fork onto the chainstay.
