Had a "fun" afternoon trying to dinglespeed this over the weekend. Realised I'd bought an inner chainring for my triple crankset, had a panic I should have gone for the middle position, settled myself, started removing cranks, realised I'd given back my pal's tool, had a panic, removed the outer chainring and managed to squeeze the new 28t around the 4 arms, realised I'd bought an asymmetric ring for symmetric cranks, moved beyond panic to mild despair.
I did get the tape measure out for some rough chainline calculations though, so not all in vain. Willing myself to order the chainring I need today, let's see how it goes.
Otherwise, anyone got some cheap xc-ish tyres they'd part with? I think I can do 2.4" max
