Hi, ive installed my new 32t oval ring, the chain has the good length, but on my 11th teeth, now my chain touch the chain stay (touch my guard) without my protector the chain doest not touch but the gap is about 3mm.

With my 2x11, the small gear was far more to the inside so the chain was inside the chainstay. Now its directly above.. And I can't really used spacers, cause the one up 32t have integrated chainrings threads with kind of small offset
Do you have an idea?

What BB are you running, does it have spacers?

Otherwise it looks like you need to go for a round or bigger ring.

3mm of clearance may be enough to run a low-profile chainstay protector like the Lizard Skin CF one (or something similar):

As its a PF it almost certainly won't have a spacer, but worth a look.

Impossible to play with my bb.. No spacer and with my ring and integrated /spacer/ threads I can't add spacers... I just need 2mm.
Look the ring... Any idea
