preciate the tip about deleting the large washer / dust cover from the setup. as an older rider who got started in the 90s i've just always ran them out of habit and never really considered that it may be hindering things more than helping. keep the tips coming, appreciate the content fam.
Thanks for the feedback I hyped it helped
same here, good tip
Get rid of the hat washer!. Ive got a bike with an alignment problem I couldn’t seem to fix. That simple trick made all the difference. Thank you. .
You are welcome. It drove me crazy forever as well
I can't believe I'm finally learning this stuff. I didn't realize so much went into it. Thank you for opening my eyes
stacked always on point. dope, i hope business is boomin on the west coast homie.
Thank you
When I was shopping for bottom brackets, I noticed that Odyssey did not include the drive side dust cover. It's the reason I chose a different brand. Now I know why it's not there.
😂 I have had many customers do the same thing. They think I’m full of it. 😭
Thanks so much, man. Couldn't line up my sprocket and its cause that cone waher. Im going put it on my non drive side with an extra washer. It seems like that lines up my crank gaps equal. I also relasised now why Odyssey only puts one cone waaher with their BB kits. Haro premium bb kits give you thinner cone waahers
Thanks for the advice about that I've always had just a little bit of trouble doing that👍👍👍
🤙
Thanks for the tips man👊🏾👍🏾
Thank you for the great info
Great Explanation ! Now I see why my cranks are making a weird noise, I have to throw away that big washer with logo. Thanks bro!!
Great info. It definitely helped.
Always like your videos. So, ditching the drive side dust cover if necessary leaves the bearing exposed but it doesn’t matter because it’s sealed? Got it.
The smaller spacers then rest against the bearing race that’s on the axle? Does that affect the pressure against the bearings when you tighten your cranks? Thanks for the video 👍🏻
Negative. The cone touches the same exact part of the bearing and dirt still touches that seal. The cone just looks cool even though you can’t see it behind the sprocket.
You are welcome
@@Stackedbmx yeah, I totally get it now. I pulled the cover on my 22” ATF, added a smaller spacer and the chain runs so much smoother. It’s amazing what a few mm adjustment will do. Keep doing your thing bro, those of us who know appreciate your efforts 😎
Love your vids man keep it up 👌

I bought that exact same bike, the Connor Keating pro complete and I put the stock spacer on the drive side and my chain was very misaligned. My chain felt too tight. This video was much needed much thanks.
Again very helpful.

pffft i am so sick of videos, I sure do appreciate them tho. I believe I have watched at least 20 to assist me with my fricken issue...no help for me so far. I've been left with a couple of mismatch bikes and parts since my ex hit up my storage facility pest that he is FML. I'll get a bike together yet. thanks guys this video taught me something other than i wanted which is cool.
I glad it helped you with something. What is the problem you need help with?
Dude thanks for the tip on losing the cone spacer... i was considering grinding down the excess gap created by the sprocket adapter... your solution was a much better idea.
To be honest this was helpful altho I never thought chain alignment could mess up your bike so I gotta check mine out
It can wear the teeth on the sprocket to where there sharp and thin then if you happen to do a sprocket stall or accedenly bash it the teeth will break off especially if your sprocket is 6061t6 so get it inline and vet that 7000 series aluminum like 7005 or 7075 and thing in 7000 series is better
Remember to use copper grease for your cranks when you put them on 👍

Whatup!! Love ur content, shout out from Brasil 🇧🇷
Yee Brasíl!!!
On my bike, I use the cone dust cover and no spacers and it has good chain line.
great video on point as usual . My WTP battleships chain alignment will always be off. This is due to the short ass back end aha
I fucking hate those cone spacers too
On my bike I took off the back wheel and pulled it but my chain stays loose idk how to fix that I need help plz it worked before but now it doesn’t help
I dont understand why they make the damn cone so big if it never works. Im in the same boat right now with my profile crank
I liked, subscribed and turned on post notifications I hope I win a bike mine broke years ago and I love to ride bikes so life has been pretty boring
🤙✌️👌
Now i know why my tires rubbing on the frame when i do grinds because my sprocket not align to the driver
if you guys are wondering how to fit a spline drive sprocket on your cranks >> th-cam.com/video/zmoCQk8tC0M/w-d-xo.html 👍
You can use a yard stick to see if it's really true.
Thanks too!! Definitely going to swap out the cone washer.
I want to win!!
I always have problems with this
I hope this helped
thanks for the tip. My chain is definitely not aligned. Guess I need to get rid of that bearing cover.
