My 1997 Proflex Animal is now the proud wearer of an m900 XTR crankset. I know its not quite period correct but it is such a nice crankset I couldn't resist it and sure enough it is great, light, strong and decent looking. At the moment I am just running a middle ring because, rather strangely, when the granny ring is fitted it is very close to the middle ring. So my question is as follows: do m900 XTR cranksets need some sort of pillar or spacer to position the granny ring away from the middle ring?
Question for all you m900 XTR experts

Sounds to me like you need a shorter BB

Yes, 5 spacers that lift the ring up off the middle. Bit fo a fiddle but quite a weight saver.

Yes 5 spacers . no more than 5mm I think .
measure the distance between the big and middle ring , and it should be similar to the middle to granny ring ?

On a similar note - anyone know of a source for TopLine inner ring spacers?
