Cranks hitting chainstays on K2 Enemy

Hi all,

I recently bought a used ~2004 (with disk brake tabs) K2 Enemy frame and built it up with Shimano 9-speed components. The crank is a Shimano 105 Octalink double, and the bottom bracket is a Dura Ace 7700 68x109.5mm. The problem I am having is that the crank arms are hitting the chainstays -- just slightly on the left side and more significantly on the drive side. Do I need to use a triple (118mm) bottom bracket? This is a cyclocross frameset, so I am surprised that a double chainset would have interference problems. Any insight would be appreciated!
