tight chainstay clearance on my lynskey Ti allroad!

[wallymann]

like, literally, 1mm on the non-drive side. cranks are campy record UTs, frame is the pro-cross. plenty of space on the drive side.

shouldnt be too tough to crimp that if clearance becomes an issue...thoughts?

I would leave it. Call linskey before you start squeezing tubes. Something is not right about this and since you are not using spacers with a campy bb then it looks like a frame issue. How much clearance is on the other side?

drive side is A-OK.

Having owned a few Lynskey's over the years (Sportive, R230, R255, R265, Sportive DISC, CooperCX) call them and show them the pics. That is too close knowing that it will flex and then rub.

I'll add that I no longer own any Lynskey's so draw your own conclusions.

I agree with your assessment here... if you were the builder would you be recommending a MTB crank?

that first picture makes the crank arm look weird, like it's bulged out.

I might try a GRX before I go MTB

Not a UT user or Lynskey owner and this may seem kinda stupid, but...
Italian bottom bracket? Installed backwards?

Something looks very wrong there....

I was pleased when I saw how the SRAM/CX1 sits on my same year Pro-CX frame. Wally and I kinda got these together, well close. I forgot which if us unduly influenced the other at this point.

Looks like the engineers had lunch that day and talked about work.

EDIT/Add: Drive side same clearance on mine with the CX1/GXP.

Crimp=cringe, not to mention high loss probability of warranty potential, no?

Frame is BSA, as are the UT cups already installed.

Is this a new frame? Return it. It is way out of alignment. Don't settle.

[wallymann]

nope. BSC.

That rear triangle is way outta whack.

[robt57]

Wally, your hirth/bolt torqued for the pic? Is C clip 'in' on the drive side? RU Positive DS seated all the way in?? [why I asked if torqued]

______________
I just opened a new UT chainset box and looking at the ND ARM in relation to the cup I expect the same result with UT on mine.

I measured a UT install on another bike to measure how proud the arm sits outside the cup, then from cup seat on BB edge. Same exact thing as Wally, arm on top of stay.

Lets discount the frame alignment angle. Just wide there for the tire clearance/design.

I'd sure be on the phone with Lynskey with a definite WhatTheFuss??
