Slow down a bit. Three questions you can answer:

1. What is the distance (in millimeters) from the centerline of your seattube to the line mid-way between your 50 and 34T chainrings?
2. What is the distance (in millimeters) from the line that bisects you rear dropouts to the center-most cog position in your freewheel (5-speed shown? 3rd cog. 6-speed? space between 3rd and 4th cog.)
3) What type of chain are you using (specific make, model of chain)?

I'd be able to help you if I knew these three things.
