Need a triple for my vintage Nishiki
Hi all,
Last year I restored my mid 80's Nishiki Custom Sport and in order to make it suitable for my purposes
I want to go from a double to a triple crankset (preferably with a 48 or lower top ring). Do I need to go vintage for this? How can I be sure
that the chain line will be correct? The vintage double Sakae that I put on during the restoration does not have
a optimal chain line and would need ring spacers for the small ring to function well, right now it is gear skipping due
to too much chain angle (when in the lower gears). The original cranks had more dish than the Sakae which corrects
the chain line without spacers.
Thanks,
Patrick
