ok balls to it …..
I posted on here about having issues with chainset clearnace with the xtr cranks i was using.
Someone on here offered me aslx chainset that had “only had a few summer rides”
the pictures i got sent were with the chainset running a sigle ring so i asked if he had the rings for the chainset and i got told yes and they are in good condition.
on the strength of that i bought said chainset and it arrived this morning and it looked ok, however when i fitted it to the bike the middle chainring is catching the chain and not shifting very well and showing all the signs of being worn.
so i took the chainset off the bike and had another look and started to see that the rings didnt look right compaired to my mates slx chainset.
the middle ring is worn into sharks teeth and has a tooth missing and is not a slx chainring??
the other is not a slx chainring either?
ive emailed the chap who bought them off and his reply was they were fine last time he used them and then he offered to send me another used middle ring or sell me a new middle and outer ring.
surely as i bought a slx chainset it should have the correct chainrings fitted??
what do you think??
cheers
