Right - got the ribble winter/audax frame home and ready to build. I have a HT2 chainset and BB, anyone know what the spacers configuration is?
Also it has a band on front mech adapter bolted on to 2 small bosses (like bottle mount bosses), can i unscrew the adapter and run a normal front mech with band?

cheers so far!!

HT2 chainset, road or MTB? if its a road then they dont run spacers, if its an MTB chainset then im not going to help as it'll look hideous ๐Ÿ˜†

Can't recall the HT11 spacing. You can ditch the adapter and run the band on mech.

Edit....if it's a band on mech adapter sorry.

No spacers with a road chainset.

No spacers at all with an HT2 road chainset (as said above) and can you provide pics of the front mech adaptor?
If it's a band on/braze on adaptor then you can just remove it, however if it's bolted directly to the frame like this:

you will need a braze on front mech.
