Got myself a KCNC K-Type external BB (HTII compatible)

However, unlike most shimano kit etc it comes with no instructions on spacing.

It says: fits 73mm shells with no spacers, and 68mm shells with spacers provided.

However... it comes with shitloads of different spacers, a rubber ring and no indication of where the spacers go and how many are needed. And WTF is the rubber ring for? 🙂

Anyone shed any light on this for me please as I need to get my chainline perfect (1x10 setup with LG1)

Also, I have a 68mm BB shell (Meta 4x)

Its this one: http://clee-cycles.co.uk/esite/P1017/product

Space it out how you normally would for a 68mm shell, and ditch the rubber ring.

i.e. 2x 2.5mm spacers driveside and 1x 2.5 spacer non-driveside.

Simples 🙂
