Just about to install but no spacers i.e. 2 drive side 1 on the non drive.
They are the double set up but just using a single ring not sure if I should be using the spacers

If you've got a massive shell you won't need them, they're a normal width axle AFAIK

Youll need spacers if its a screw thread one I believe, I don't recall Whyte doing a 75.5mm BB shell.

What spacers should be on for a 1x11 XT bb and cranks?

I've got one thick one on the drive side. Is that right?

If you have a 73mm wide BB shell then yes, 68 runs 2 drive, 1 non drive.

Ok great. I do think I'm going to switch to the non drive side to see if it helps the chain line.

Have you measured the BB shell? Is it a threaded one?
