might look into an unramped chainring.can skip if using the stock chring.

May as well get an unramped dh style ring, a bit heavier but ,more secure and last longer ( igot an fsa one cheap of crc)

the bb mounted one is better than the seat tube one, but both work fine, good idea to loctite all the bolts though
