Recently I replaced the stock crank with my Race Face Next LP which has 5 bolts. The prior crank had 4 bolts and the rings were different. I also replaced the tires and put on the 2.1 Kenda Nevgals which are a fat 2.1.
I just got my bike back from the LBS where I had a tune up. The owner/mechanic told me that my rear tire was rubbing the front derailur because it the tire was to fat. Personally I think it is a crank issue. The Next LP is a 5 bolt crank however is it possible to get the same size rings that were on the prior 4 bolt crank to fit the current crank?
I hope I am not making this confusing. I think I may switch out the tire first since that is the cheaper option.
Any suggestions?
This bike is almost brand new.
Thanks,
