upsidedown's TT bike

I'll definitely Acetone.

Ditched the stock ring, my 55t Fibrelyte is the only 'aero' chainring I currently have actually.

Will look so good. Can't wait to see it fitted!

Will take a while - should get the T3 faced and get a BB

Will post an acetoned crank to insta so you can see before you commit. Using Shimano BB-R60.
I masked-off/retained the torque guide print, on NDS arm (thought it looked cool/more pro, etc...)

55t Fibrelyte

No Arc?

Too much variation in chain tension + 3/32 + the wrong shape for fixed, apparently.

interesting... I can't remember where I read it but I thought that the less ovalised shape of the Arc chainrings was supposed to mean that they were fixed friendly.

I'm just weighing up whether to buy an arc chainring or stick to fibrelyte for my geared TT bike... £135 seems like a lot for a wobbly chainring that I'm not certain I'll like but then it's not a whole lot more than a new fibrelyte so I may take a punt.

@ewanmac How big's yer Fibrelyte?

oops... I didn't mean to imply that I had one already... I meant stick to the more established option when buying new.

Probably looking at 54/55 though.

That will be a hit on pedalroom

55T here, if you run DA9000 cranks.

Why did you remove that?

Sadly not... I saw your previous posts about selling some chainrings but I have rotor flow cranks so need 5bolt with a circular hole.

Best looking modern solid spider track crank by a mile

cough

fixeh

Very slim.

Especially when you pedal directly onto the cranks.

Next level Q-factor game.

You could Velcro strap your feet directly to the pedal holes?

How else.

Or build the pedals into the the shoe like Obree

What cables are you using, and were they ok to thread through the ventus?
