After putting new chain on, its rubbing the wheel, both chain adjusters are on identical marks.... have I put something back together wrong on spindle or do I just mess around with the adjusterrs till its not touching ?

Cheers

yes I am a mechanical numpty :thumbup
 
I never go off the marks, I always check with a steel rule. It only takes 0.5 mm difference either side at the adjusters to make a big difference at the tyre/chain touch points. I'd go back and have a double check :thumbup
 
What tyre are you running ,, i had this problem with a michelin 190 rear ?? A few people on here had the same thing !!
 
Here's a guide on how to check your wheel alignment with a bit of string.

I'll see if CrashTD can add it to the File Vault.
