Have ended up with another set of these. Remember seeing these painted versions in the past but never knew their origin. After some Googling it seems they came fitted on a Shogun bike under the name Celeste I think. The ring had celeste written in it too.
Anyway the colour was gross so I spend this evening removing the paint and here we are. I tried removing the paint from the chainring but the finish looks a bit shit in comparison to the crank arms which can e out great. I probably won’t use the ring anyway as it’s a 54t..
Not quite sure what it’s going on yet, bcd is 110 I was thinking of either getting an AARN or I could get an aero ring from garbaruk which would allow me to go for a higher tooth count. People online suggest I should be okay running fixed with a nw chainring if I stick to 3/32 or 8 speed chain, so we’ll see how I got on with that.
Would love to work out how to add back on the Sugino 75 logo, could go for a sticker but think it wouldn’t look right feel like it would stick out, any other suggesting?
Looks great that.
Someone on here has a Look with a super funky Looney toons chainring. If you get another aero ring I say get some good vinyl and put a funky design on it.
I feel like anything too crazy is not my vibe haha tbh I’d probably try and replicate the original Sugino 75 graphics on the ring as I quite like the graphics.
