Anyone bought the Deckas narrow wide front chainrings on eBay for about £12? They look ok but the images don't seem to show every other tooth having a wide tooth to help
keep the chain on?
Can anyone give me a heads up if they are actually narrow wide as they look different to my sram rings but loads cheaper.

Ells

Not bought any but look OK to me, probably won't last as long as a sram/absolute black ring but for less than £15 for an oval 34 ring I've added them to my basket to try out next time I need a chainring!

Just looked at them, they definitely show a narrow wide tooth profile on the listing I looked at.

As said, the quality of the alloy may be the thing to question, but in all honesty I imagine they come from the same place as Superstar, Uberbike etc which plenty of people run.

They are 7075-T6 alloy, so what gives?

Superstar are UK made

7075-T6 alloy

I'll believe that when they provide proof! 😉
