Folks
Hi. My brother has a Pinarello prince with SRAM Red. He is experiencing a problem and was wondering if anyone else has run into it. I didn't see anything in my search of the forum.
He is using a standard RED 53/39 crank with an 11-26 cassette in the back. When in the 53x22 or 24 or 26 the chain angle is so great that the chain is dropping off onto the 39. He is using a SRAM chain and the wheels are Mavic Kysirium SL 2008
I have not had a chance to look at it but a bike shop did, said they couldn't fix it and blamed it on the short chainstays. I checked the specs and it is a 406 which is not short by modern standards. I am thinking the chain is the culprit but want to see if anyone else has run into a similar problem. There is no way to adjust the chain line correct?
Thanks
Jim
