I happen to be in England at the moment. A fair number of folks
cycling, even in heavy traffic. I didn't bring a Rivendell with me

Not exactly epic, but very enjoyable nonetheless: 16 miles in hilly
countryside, of which 8 were climbing and 5-6 standing climbing, I did gear
down to a 65" gear and switched back to the 75" for the last leg, mostly
downhill. Great fun! 1999 Joe Starck custom 571 bsd road fixed gear (17 3/4

Welcome to the fold. Don't worry about the technical details; the people at
Rivendell do a great job of steering your right. The bikes are beautiful and
wonderfully functional.

Few questions on this one...
Does the VO BB have an asymmetrical spindle? Or are you sure that the
bb cartridge is correctly seated against the cup?
Are you talking about the "Grand Cru" or the "Threadless" version?
Have you measured the bb spindle to make sure it is as advertised?

JIS tapers can and do vary from brand to brand. Some of the tapers
fit in further than others. From my experience, they can vary as much
as 4mm total, or 2mm each side.
Couple of things.
1. Did you measure the actual length of the VO BB?
2. Did you try using a 2mm driveside spacer underneath th

Hm, i find that really odd as I run a VO *103mm* with an XD2 double to
get good chainlines with my dingle cog. The crank is *right* up
against the cup, but the machining around the taper hole on the crank
does its job and there's no interference. Is this one of the newer
XD2 with that machining?

Hi Patrick,
The difference is that I weigh 210 compared to your 155, thus more air

Hmmm well, the crankset was purchased new from RBW within the last
year or so. It had been mounted once. I used a torque wrench and did
not exceed the maximum torque on written on the crank arm bolts. If

I can see your point. Though the fact is that *mine* are incompatible,
so I think the word is correctly used. I acknowledge that someone
might interpret that as meaning they are known to be uniformly
incompatible. But that's a reach without reading the thread, where I
definitely speak only of mine.
