Hi
I recently fitted a Surly 32t stainless steel chain ring to a Shimano Deore XT 737 crankset with the proprietary inner and outer chainrings.
Upon trying to index my front mech, I noticed that the chain was falling between the inner and middle chain rings due to a larger gap than between my middle and outer chainrings. When I chatted to a friend, he said that Shimano chain rings have an offset from the crank bolts to the teeth line.
I am looking to buy some chain ring spacers to correct this.
Does anyone know the offset of Shimano chainrings and therefore what size spacers I would need? Or has anyone else solved the same problem?
Thanks very much,
Max
