turning a double ring crank into a single ring
Hey guys. I'm turning a bike into a fixed gear and in the interest of saving money, I removed the small chainring. When I bolted the big ring back to the crank, I noticed that the rear of the bolts vary in the amount they extend away from the crank and toward the frame. They're all really tight, and I've tried to tighten it more, but they won't compress anymore. None of them are contacting the chainstay, but some come close. If I could take good pictures of it I would. Anyway, I was wondering if it's a bad idea to ride on this crank with the varying lengths of the bolts in the back. Again, it's still strong feeling, I'm just not sure how ok it would be to ride on. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
