The crank is rubbing on the chainguard, what can I do?

If the crank arm rubs repeatedly on the chainguard, it is likely that the chainguard is slightly misaligned. You can fix this in a few simple steps:

  1. Loosen the two screws that mount the white inner part of the chainguard to the frame (on the chainstays, close to your bottom bracket).
  2. Carefully shift the whole chainguard a little bit closer towards the frame.
  3. Now re-tighten the two screws by feel.
