what the hell is that noise...

damn. so i have a formula hub (126mm spaced) and a stronglight track crank/BB.

both have a chainline of 42mm.


but my chainline is a lil' off, and i dont understand why. it makes the "GRIND-KEEERSSH-RAWR" noise when pedaling. when i re-arrange the spacers on the hub, it just moves the wheel off center, and continues making noise. the only thing i can think of that makes the awful, awful noise is that my chainring is 1/8" and my cog is 3/32".

somebody please enlighten me as to why i have to hide my face in shame when people a half a block away are all like "damn son, that **** sounds like ****.".
