    Chain keeps getting wedged around the chainstay, theres not much room between inner ring and the chainstay.
    Anyone else this problem.

    Check your derailleur adjustment. Had a problem with this on the same bike myself. Assuming you’re using X9 transmission?

    If your running 3 x 9 it’s nothing to do with your set up. My missus had this problem and had it adjusted to perfection by 2 good mechanics. Regardless every time she dropped into the granny ring it would get jammed around the bb and the chain stay.

    Spoke to On One and asked why they said it would work with 3 x 9 as it as ruining the frame by taking chunks out of it. They said the info is out of date on the website and apologised. Moved to 2 x 10 and its never happened again.

    Hope this helps a bit,

    Other than that, lovely little frame…..

    All the best,

    Lee.

    Using 2×10

    Wondering if chain could be a bit long?

    Have a read of Sheldon browns site for chainsuck. Most will tell you it is down to dirty components but I’m positive chain line can effect it. After months of trying to sort on my hardtail I tried steel deore rings, 26 /36, no more chainsuck!
