Chainline Help
I am currently failing in my endeavor to go fixed.
I have a Schwinn World Sport from about 86ish. Currently I am trying to put an 1/8 crank on the old square taper bottom bracket. The rear hub is a flip flop hub. Currently the chainline does not line up at all.
Do I need a certain bottom bracket? Thanks for the help.
