trust me it its possible.

You don't have to grind shit. Reread the instructions carefully. I know they might as well be latin but the information is there.

there is no need too. cut down or trim anything. ]

Just use the adapter and no bb spacers on the left or drive side. Than with the chain guide spacing bolts, adjust your chain line to were you need it.

You still need a spindle! What're the C arms gonna attach to?
I have no clue. My shop hooked me up with a free installation, I've never touched them since

I tried with no spacer on the drive side, and the spider rubs on the guide. Because Hone's come as a double ring, so where the inner ring bolts to rubs.

K, that's easy- I've had to grind down a bunch of those on truvative systems- grind 'em as low as they'll go.

I can't adjust how far away the back plate is. It's fixed.

That's a VERY common problem. I take it back. You probably do need to grind down the granny spider.

Yeah, guess that's what I'm going to have to do, I'm always hesitant about grinding anything.

i just came up with this logical conclusion lol.

your probably putting your chain ring were your bash guard should be. since you have the lg1 move it were it should be if you had a bash guard.

than use the e13 chain line spacers.....
