• Went to the Sheffield bike jumble (just made it before packing up) and bought a chain set labelled 3/32 for £20.
    It’s fuckimg 1/8th I now discover.
    Tossers.
    Likely I shan’t be riding the Holdsworth any time soon. Christ, this shit is hard to sort out. Is it always like this?

  • Ha, yes. Demoralising to the point of giving up at times!

  • yes. I have a loft full of components that don't fit or are just not 'quite right'

  • Your 1/8th Chainset

    Every cloud has a silver lining - now you can recognise the difference between 1/8 and 3/32 by eye!

    It's only the ring that's 1/8th, you need a 3/32 ring with the right bolt circle diameter for your crank.

    If your chainset is TA , I would happily swop your ring for a 3/32, or buy it (assuming it's not clapped out or a silly size).

    As mentioned elsewhere, I'm away till next weekend.
