[#9735701]

I'm thinking of converting a 4-bolt 104mm BCD setup to 1x and need a biggish ring, as it's for mainly road/gravel riding.

Whats the biggest you've seen? 36t?

I know Rotor/Hope/Blackspire do a 5-bolt 110BCD in 38/40/42 but I'd prefer to keep the crank as it's nice and short.

[round or oval]

I've got a 38 on the way from Amazon.

Grofitness Aluminum MTB Single Chainring BCD 104mm Round Chainwheel Repair Bicycle Parts (Black, 38T) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B06WGQFVL9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_RCbqAb2S8NEBS

Doesn't say it's narrow wide but the 36 I ordered last week (from the same listing) is.

38 and a 11-23 on my road Cx works really well the 38 is on a 130BCD road crank.

I've got a 38t superstar on my CX, I'm sure I've seen 40t available somewhere...

Edit: just checked, SS still go up to 38t in 104 BCD, but only seem to do 40 and 42 in 110...

This is a very good point! In my defence I was quite inebriated.
