Anybody know what the Chameleon chainline is or is supposed to be. I have some new Race Face cranks and I don't want to screw with chainline. I have the option of 48, 49 or 50mm.

what model cranks? RF ISIS cranks would take a 113 spindle....

108mm if it's an Evolve XC.

They are the new Race Face Deus X-Type. There is no choice in spindle length but a choice of 1 mm spacers that fit onto the spindle crank set-up.

The spacers move the crank arms out or in depending on how many spacers you put in. The come set up for 49mm spacing, so you can remove a spacer to make it a 48mm chainline or add a spacer to make it a 50mm.

I would like to know what the recommended chainline is so I don't have to put the cranks on and then take them of for adjustment.

probably worth a call to SC or RF, then

Wow it would've taken about 20min to do a little trial and error yet you have waited 24hrs and still don't have an answer.

I can tell by your comment you have no idea how these cranks go together. It's a bit of a process to assemble these correctly. Thanks for your input, I'll be sure to save it or pass it along to someone else...you've been most helpful.

P.S. Race Face and Santa Cruz have no idea what the correct chainline should be.
