Looking to change my cranks from Race Face responds to some shimano slx.

Are the new double and triples the same cranks?
Can you adjust the chainline with those plastic washer wotsits?

IIRC the doubles won't let you run a ring smaller than 34t, whereas the triples will do 32t but won't look as neat with a single ring.

Also the XTR Race double is a funny BCD.

Thanks.. Ive got a 34t and a 36t so may go for a new double and sell the chainrings. I knew there was a difference but couldnt remember what it was.
