Would offsetting the rear wheel 5 mm harm the handling that much ? Quote Link to comment

Rear wheel has gs hub 35 ish offset. Outside of rear sprocket clashes with frame using string as a straight edge ,tried alloy box but string more reliable..just me I'm a builder .. Chain is a vx at 23.5mm Could machine couple mill off the carrier but as it stands front and rear are 10 mill out Quote Link to comment

I had another build with a SSSA and offset rear wheel, was supposedly centered correctly (by me) after being set up. after riding the bike a few times and not being happy with the handling, I took the rear end apart and re measured everything, it came to light that the wheel off set was more than i had been told, ended up being off set by 5mm, once i added 5mm to the wheel spacer and centered it properly the bike handled correctly. so yes 5mm does make a difference mate Edited January 2, 2017 by 370steve 1 Quote Link to comment
