    Hello Singletrack peeps,
    I’m trying to renovate a old Dawes road bike for a friend. Does anyone know where I can find some 8spd compatible chainrings. I had a hunt on ebay and they’re crazy prices. Does anyone know where I might be able to find some at a reasonable price?
    thanks

    I’m currently using a 34T http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/CROOTHTH/on-one-ringmaster-chainring

    and have a 34T http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/CROOSS/on-one-stainless-chainring in the spares box.

    Currently 15 squids a pop.

    Especially with the 30% payday code at Superstar until tomorrow, I wonder if their n/w rings including the ovals would work fine with my 8-speed drivetrain. I think 9-speed chains are the same internal width as 8-speed, so I suspect they would work.

    52 and 42 – tooth, 130mm BCD, 5 bolt. I’m replacing the stock chainrings on an old RX100 chainset.

    Thanks n0b0dy0ftheg0at – a little small for my needs! 😯

    how can a chainring have an internal width?

    I wrote about the internal width of chains, not chainrings. 😉

    Sorry, I checked but those I have are 135 bcd.
    They are 8 speed and 42/52, which is lovely, but only of use if you can find some campag cranks for them.
    ebay chainset?
