1996 Trek 7000 with a 2x11 Deore XT drivetrain with Raceface crank. Chain was SLX HG601. No master link. It broke once, I repaired it on the spot, it broke again - same link, I removed it, repinned the chain, shifted to the smaller cog in the front and less than a mile it broke again. So it made me think - is something not right with my setup.
The bottom bracket shell is 68mm and the Raceface BB is 73mm so I had to use spacers, 2mm on the drive side an 3mm on the left side. But I don't get a straight line for chain even at largest rear / smaller front.
Thoughts?
Otherwise is a beast - climbs better than any of my other bikes and even with the 26x2.4 somewhat large tires...
