[Closed] How interchangable are Middleburn RS7 arms/spiders?

[#615171]

If I were to purchase an RS7 crankset with an Uno spider is it possible to put an XC spider (for a triple ring setup) at a later date in time?

The cutout/interface looks the same on the MB website for the different type of spiders, just checking to make sure.

Cheers

You occasionally have a tiny bit of interference between the crank arm and the spider, but I can't remember what combinations were a problem, and if it was only a couple of batches that were affected.

If you do have a problem 20 seconds with a file on the corner sorts it right out.

trail_rat is 99.99% correct ๐Ÿ™‚
