Little Help...

So I've been putting the bottom bracket on the new frame and I'm having problems. The spindle is too long. The kit came with a crap ton of spacers. I put them on next to the crank arms. Am I doing this right?
Crap the what....

its pretty trial and error. youll have to have the chain and stuff on to check the chain line. ill be glad to help you.

ps.... what you doin with your old frame? id love to buy it from you..

um, are you putting bmx cranks on a track bike? ayecarumba. You definitely want to keep a straight chainline - thats kinda the point of running a single speed. That looks a little odd in the pic. Are you sure that spindle is made for a 68mm BB?

Yeah, They told me that It'd work with a 68 mm? Just not used to the spacers. Might need to round up another spindle. Haven't even started messing with the chain line...
