Hi Peeps,

I've got a new to me Orange 4 frame inbound - and I've got a non boost XT M8000 chainset - Can I just use spacers to get the right chainline?

Cheers
tim

If the chainring isn't hitting the frame then ignore any chainline faffing. I run an Occam with Boost rear and Standard chainset.

Ok cheers - just wondered as I've not got the frame yet but curious to know if it should be ok - wondered what current Orange 4 owners have
