Hi all...since i live in an urban area i ride quite a bit to where i need to go. never a fixed\ss though. i recently found an old columbia frame at our local co-op and decided to make a fixed\ss out of it. what a pain in the a** it's been trying to find parts that fit (all i had was the frame and fork). i have a couple of questions i'm hoping someone can help with.
first...im not sure my bb conversion piece and my wheels are gonna work together. everything i read says i need a straight chainline. does that mean perfectly parallel to the frame? or just not totally out of whack? (again...newbie here)
second...i had to buy this 1 piece-3 piece bb conversion kit.
