Im doing a rear tire and fender setup for a guy that brought me his frame with an Elswick Hardtail kit installed I believe its a 4" or 4.5" stretch
I know the shop that put the hardtail on and they do great work
my situation is that I centered the rim between the rear frame rails on the hardtail kit and needed about a .500 sized spacer on the left side between the frame and chain sprocket to get the rim centered
but when doing this the tire is not centered at all compared to the backbone on the frame
I was just curious if anyone out there is running a rear spacer on the chain sprocket side (left side) of the rear wheel
I have the stock spacer on the brake side of the rear wheel (right side)
I dont have the motor right now to line a chain up for it and the customer lives about 2.5 hours each way from me
so im trying to come up with the correct solution without him having to take an additional 5 hour trip to me
thanks for any help
