    chainline for 05 kona stinky

    hey guys,
    i have recently been looking at purchasing new cranks for my 05 kona stinky the cranks i wish to purchase are truvativ holzfeller these cranks have been the obvious choice for me since they are cheap and still strong...
    but in order to purchase the right BB i need to know the chainline, for a 68/73 mm BB i have a choice of a chainline 51 or chainline 56?
    so if anyone could shed some light on this it would be much appreciated?

    Ok dont no if i missed something here, but you shouldn't need to worry about chain line, (you have gear therefor it doesn't really matter? Maybe you have your terms mixed up?

    Simply put, get the 51mm chainline version, as it is for a 68/73mm BB shell.

    You can read more about chainline here:
