Went to fit a BLACKSPIRE SNAGGLETOOTH 30 tooth in place of a SRAM 32. Looks almost identical except you can’t actually line up the chain ring bolts !
Anyone had this problem and found an alternative 30 tooth option ?

Which crank? The higher end ones have an irregular pattern to allow changing the chainring without removing the cranks from the frame. Direct-mount rings should fit if your crank has a removable spider.

Sram are 94bcd is the Blackspire 96 bcd ?
If so you’ll need to do a bit if filling to make it fit.

It’s the X1, and taxi25, you could be onto something there. Did wonder about getting the file out…….

I don’t suppose there is a SRAM fitting chainring around the £30 price range ? Is it like DELL computers ?

Oval seems all the rage.
