Sprocket alignment

Post by Brian Womersley »

Could I suggest to other Pershing builders that you do not attempt to fit the drive sprockets until AFTER fitting the road wheels .
I then used a straight rod laying across all the wheels and seated in the track slots… pushing the rod up to the loosely fitted sprocket I could get it to indicate the precise location for the sprocket and whilst holding it in position tightened the grub screws equally ..
Sprocket spot on and actually 23mm out from the drive case 👍😁
