so since my crash out a dunc gray a few weeks ago i've been fixing various bits on my bike. i had one final mystery noise that was discovered to be my crank on the chain ring side, is hitting my frame.
Alex said all i have to do is move the bottom bracket...
so i don't have the tools to move/fix/look at a BB. and i have no idea on the topic.
getting the bike to my local bike shop won't happen in time to get the bike out to dunc gray for friday.
so i was wondering if there was anyone in the club that may be able to give me a hand down at the track on wednesday?
i think i may need a spacer as well. but i should be able to pick one up my self.

Thanks
Lizanne

What type of bottom bracket is it? I have tools for some but not others. If it's an adjustable position one (miche make one) then I guess you can fix it, but if the crank is hitting the frame I'd be a bit worried that something is bent... are they track cranks or road cranks?

I'll try to remember to chuck some tools in the car on Wednesday night.

That's the same as I have. I've got a tool that fits it, so i'll bring it down tomorrow. I adjusted the chainline on the orange bike by unscrewing one side and screwing the other side in, so I suspect that the same could be done on yours. Be worth looking at the crank too, if it's just been bad since the tumble.
