  • Actually .. I might have just found a suitable 50t chainring.

  • These too much?

    Miche
    How about these? SRAM

    I've been running the latter for 3 years of daily use for work. Even got t-boned at one point and they're still holding up great.

  • Would not buy the Miche, Sram look good though.

  • Waaaayyy too much $$$ , Indra: What is the full story between you and Miche?

    Saw this just now, :) 130BCD toom can easily swap the chainring that is currently on teh Tec 9's

    Just hope they are 1-1/8.

  • It's not just me and Miche, Miche are just not very good and you can get way better for the money.

  • Fair enough, lol. Hopefully next week, I will be able to cop this 50T chainring 130bcd and put it on my current cranks.

    P.S. Anyone selling a lockring? :)

  • I'll have a look tomorrow, if I have one spare you can have it for free.

    What's up with the current one?

  • Thanks! You on the St. Paul's ride on Sat?

    • Wanna keep the 16t side incase my brother ever needs it.
  • Yeah man, I think me and Sven are leading that.

    I definitely have one that's pretty chewed up but might have a nicer one somewhere.

  • Ite, what time we leaving?

    -ooh, what happened to Elra?

  • Nothing, he's coming but we sorted the route out* it basically goes quite south west as he's gotta be in richmond like 7pm if we're still out.

    *We talked about it but we're not organised.

  • goes quite south west

    erm what? I haven't got my passport

  • Ah cool, ending with beigels?

  • Beigels at some point.

  • Okay, cool - should be there on Saturday. Friend's paintballing thing got cancelled :(.

    Currently working out a silver chainring would look like with black crank arms.

    Any decent looking combinations people have found?

  • Although there's a solution to this uglyness for 3.50

  • Is it quite sad that I find this quite funny?

  • Nah, it is funny :p.

  • Genius find.

  • Bought a rear wheel of my own, no more sharing bro's rear wheel. Ignore the front wheel, I just put it on this morning to try and get as close to 8.0 kg as possibly, got to 8.1kg. :)

    The plan:

    • Buy (and fit it to the cranks) that 50T chainring I posted here a few days ago on (hopefully) Tuesday.

    • Fit the 19T cog I got from Ollie (cheers man!) on the rear wheel I bought today. (Hopefully it fits)

    • When all the fitting is done, pop a new chain on the crankset and enjoy 19 skid patches and a lighter ratio.

    Pics:

  • Looking good man!

  • Thanks Jan! No where near finished though. :)

  • Turns out the 19T cog Ollie gave me doesn't actually fit my hub, now in search of another 19T cog as I am somewhat fond my knees so riding 50/16 is definitely out of the question.

  • Are you coming ride tonight? I've def got an 18 and maybe a 19 I can dig out.

  • Ahh shit! :( Nah I won't be able to make the ride.

    I'll probably cycle to St Pauls at like 7, collect the cog and head home. Riding 50/16 is no joke.
