    New XT cransket arrived today but there doesn’t seem to be a preload screw or thread for it. Is that not a thing now?

    Mine arrived a couple of weeks ago. I have not fitted it yet but I am sure I saw the plastic pre load screw in the box.
    I will definitely check when I get home tonight.
    Mine has the newer design from the one you have pictured / linked to.

    Last one I got the preload screw was in with the BB (I think) – I was just about to call Chain Reaction (or whoever it was, can’t remember) when I found it.

    Found it, it was inside the bottom bracket that I wasn’t using. Literally inside it.

    My next post will be about how I can’t fit it properly 😳

    Cheers all
