    2011 deore HTII triple cranks, running a renthal 36t single ring

    The cranks were ones that came with the bike.

    If I was in the market for cranks I would be getting SLX cranks. Single ring die-hard though.

    Nope, coiled spring won’t apply a constant force, which is why I was hoping you’d be designing a system that would.
    Belt-drive needs constant tension y’see….

    I’d be surprised if this thread is representative of mtbers in general. Lots of Middleburn mentioned but I don’t see that many of them out on the trails

    -M770 XT, double and bash with ISCG Stinger
    -M800 Saint, double and bash with ISCG Stinger
    -Raceface Ride, double and bash, no device due to position of granny bolts (fouls on stinger type devices). Had same problem with RF Evolve XC, I understand some RF come with plastic shims to fine-tune the chain line.
    -SLX, triple. Probably get doubled at some point.

    Mostly shimano, all 175’s.

    Some are double some are triple. Some are triple but run double n bash.

    Always double on the road though..
