Got a 92 Eldridge, built up cheap with spare bits as a 1x8 commuter/run around whilst on a project in Wales, currently parked at my mam's over that way.
Thinking next time I go down will build it up 3x and bring it back. Few questions, mainly due to my complete blank ignorance re. chainline etc;
1) One for the Marin afficianados: what's the seat tube o:d / fd size n this frame?
2) have a 34.9 m739 fd that could go on with a m569 chain set; if I get a shim to fit that fd to that noodly seat tube and use correct BB spindle width for chain set, will this all work?
3) Alternatively, I think current BB is 122mm, m569 is in the 107-110 range; will current BB be useable with said fd (within very low user standards!)?
Cheers!
