Can anyone see why a Hope RX chainring couldn't be used on a set of Hope Evo cranks if the Crankset M36 Locking (Hope p/n HC105-11S) was used? I'm assuming its the chainring that is offset inboard to get the 45mm chainline?
The same M36 locking shim (Hope p/n HC105-20) is used prior to the crank going on?
RX ring won't fit on MTB Evo cranks (I think). Looks like there's a big section tab compared to an mtb ring
Im pretty sure the RX ring wont fit on an evo crank due to the extra tab.
Anyone know if the RX cranks will take one of their mtb chainrings? I fancy a 36t ring for bikepacking instead of my 38. I could get the 5 arm spider and a 110bc chainring. but i do like the direct mount rings.
Thanks for the info on the tabs.
I googled the cranks and am aged to find an inside pic showing the tabs.
Looks wise it would appear MTB rings may well fit onto RX cranks.
Only way I could see that RX rings fitting onto MTB cranks would be if that extra tab could be milled off.
And this all is on the assumption that the rings are both the same thickness at that connection.
