Thanks all. Chain fitted and tensioned and seems to be good as gold :)

Must be right as i have googled a pic of another identical bike and the hanger is the same as on mine. Thanks very much for your help!

I happen to have a near identical mech and seems to be the same.

Ok so I’ve had a play. It seems to me that notch on the hanger that the screw needs to meet up against is in the wrong place? Basically in order to align it, the mech has to sit in an un natural angle. Could the hanger be wrong?!

So I was being stupid! Thanks v much for your swift response. I’ll have a go after my meeting

Hiya, yeah it was on eBay for a while. The paint was a bit naff so decided to polish it. Yes a chap did it in birmingham. Said it was a hard job as was pitted under neath the paint. It is not perfect but pretty good.

Started with a tatty ‘99. Had it stripped and polished. Full XTR, sourced a pair of SIDS that hasn’t been ridden, new bars and stem, billy bonkers tires and of course new 1998 decals.
