DON’T KNOW WHAT BOLTS TO USE WITH 32T OVAL CHAINRING WITH INTEGRATED THREADS?
They are standard bolts. You can use a granny ring bolts (from 64bcd chainring) or use the ones that connect middle and big ring from 3X crank. You can also buy them from us in the Bolts tab. Pick “Long” ones. Other sizes like 34 and 36T use “short” bolts.
It is ideal for 1x 9/10/11/12spd and Singlespeeds. Oval (elliptical) narrow-wide chainring does not compromise the work of the clutch mechanism in the rear derailleur. It also does not require a chain tensioner when using in the single-speed application. Riding out of the saddle on the uphill will become more pleasant. These chainrings also help you to recover after knee injuries as pedaling becomes smoother and less exhausting. It is the most advanced oval chainring currently on the market.
The most advanced, Patent Pending narrow/wide tooth profile ever produced, guarantee a minimum of 12 months of excellent chain retention capabilities! We mean it. Always use a new chain with a new chainring.
Chain options
10, 11 or 12spd chain for a geared bike or 6-8 spd one for SS (1/8″ also fits). If used in a 1×9 drivetrain – a 10spd chain must be used to obtain the performance. (yes – 10spd chain will work great on 9spd cassette)
Chainguide needed?
No. But if you want one then chain guide should have 2 teeth more capacity than nominal oval ring size.
