All-City Super Professional SS Crankset question
Hey guys! So I swapped to a SRAM S300 on my Super Pro and now I'm getting some god awfully loud chain noise. Like really bad.
I have put on a new 1/8" chain with the original 18t cog that came with the bike. Do you guys think the chainline is just off a bit?
Switch to a 3/32 chain?
Do I need bottom bracket spacers?
Adjust the spacers on the freehub?
Any ideas welcome, thank you.

Are you getting noise? I am unsure what chain chain is?
My guess is it is a 3/32 set up as they have a geared version as well so it would make sensate run it 3/32. The old cranks are for 10-11 speed drivetrains so probably a 1/8 chain would make noise on that or other components if set up by the OEM.
Not sure why the swap to a different crank unless for length issues both are entry level cranks nothing fancy but would work fine.
