I have a 140 rear tyre. The chain runs near to the tyre wall. Is it possible to move the rear wheel sprocket by, for instance, removing the six retaining nuts, removing the sprocket, putting some form of spacer(s) between the hub, and replacing the sprocket and (longer) bolts?
I imagine it is possible, but what is the consequence of changing the angle of the chain from rear sprocket to engine spocket? My chain is longer to accommodate the hardtail, so if I can do it what size spacer can I get away with without compromising metal and flesh?
