Seeds, 124mm is a rather wide spindle, probably reserved for triples and MTB cranks. Conversely, 110mm is on the short end of the spectrum and probably reserved for doubles or track/pista single ring cranks. In addition, some cranks will sit further out on a spindle than others. Did you also change your crankset when you changed your spindle? If you started with a double on a 124mm spindle it must have sat pretty far from the seat tube. If you are using a triple and switched to a 110mm spindle, I'd think the rings would not clear the chainstays.
