I've just fitted a great big dinner plate cassette on my mk2 Stooge
It's an SLX 11 speed with a 46t sprocket
Up front it's an SLX M7000 chainset with a 32t ring
Am I right in thinking the Stooge has a 68mm BB shell? That looks to be the case when I measure it
Everything shifts fine - chain length is fine, mech capacity is fine with good shapes in first and eleventh, B-tension screw adjusted properly
But when I'm in the 46t sprocket there is some resistance
Chainline doesn't look quite right with 2 BB spacers on the driveside and 1 on non driveside - there's a definite bias towards the smallers sprockets of the cassette
Both crank arms are an equal distance from chainstay
And I've got the EBB in the "low" position (with 29er wheels)
Only thing I haven't tried yet is swapping one of the BB spacers from drive to non drive
Not a boost chainset is it?
What does the chainline measure? Measure centre seattube to centre chainring.
Not supposed to be a boost chainset but good shout to check
MTB chainline is non ideal anyway, its offset to the smaller cogs. Best to measure up though!
Is the chainset for 1, 2, or three rings?
As far as I can tell it's a single ring chainset
