I hate to bring this thread back, but I ran into a snag and need advice. I have two different bb spindles, one is 115.5 and the other 126mm. The 115.5 is so close to the chain stay I know there are going to be problems. the 126 seems to give me less than ideal chain alignment and shifting is not smooth and I think it lends to a pretty noisy drive train. Are there spacers made to give me a few more mm on the drive side to allow more clearance from the chain stay? Looking at my campy crank bianchi there seems to be a good 5+mm of space. On this new build I would cal it maybe 2-3mm. What are my alternatives?
