Hi guy's just fitted this New chain ring but the lower chain it dragging on the tire in first gear. Any advice would be great thanks you

What is the chain ring? May have altered the chainline

It’s the Bosch spider he is using I’ve got the same issue but making a spacer up

Just googled that part number - it's non-Boost. Do they do a Boost one? FSA do I think.

chain line : Standard chain line (non Boost), optimized for Bosch BDU4XX drives

Very hard to find bud

 

[Johnny rider]

I’ve added 3mm space to the chainring and that’s the clearance on the rear tyre 2.8 wide

I’m making a spacer to fit on the shaft of the motor and remove the 3mm spacers on the chainring hopefully that will work

Chainring offset was my thought too. Not had time to get into the exact specs but Superstar are decent for upgrades. Might find something suitable there.

What's the difference between boost and normal

 

[Jamze]

What's the difference between boost and normal

Your front and rear hubs are wider (110mm and 148mm). Consequently, the drivetrain is shifted outwards, which means your chainring should also sit further out. My understanding, anyway ? Non-boost is 100mm front and 142mm rear. So you either need Boost components, or will need to adjust with spacers.

 

[Tallguy888]

Yes all straight. Original chainring had a bigger offset which brought it further out than this one

Hi, notice you have the same Bosch spider as me, which is the normal chain line of 50mm we both need the boost version that gives us 53mm,only stock I can find is in Italy ?

Worked out £44 from Italy, probably be a week or two delivery, bike rides fine so not a problem waiting I don’t think..be interesting to see how much extra gap I get from tyre to chain and if it shifts smoother because it’s pretty good anyway.
