[Closed] Is there an alternative to oneup components 42T ring yet?
Before I order.
Yeah you can get a whole cassette thing from china that is 11/40 looks fairly good it's in the current dirt 100
works/wolftooth/absolute black, all coming soon
Excellent, I'll hold off then.
Im also curious as to when these are coming and will a short cage mech cope with the length of chain thats needed? Bit of a threadjack, sorry.
Not at all, I'm interested in that too.
Yes there is other alternatives Oneup is just the latest idea

Trickstuff should put a complete 11-40 cassette on the market soon
Holy thread resurrection! I can only see wolftooth doing a 42t, anyone else yet?

I'm using the Hope 40t, swapped out the 17t and replaced the 15t with a 16t.
34 or 32 up front , can't see the need for a 42t!
Wouldn't go back to double ever again.

Big fack off long climbs.
Drop to a 30t at the front and get a Hope trex in 40t. Win.
Also, why dont you just buy a Oneup ring? Jsut actuslly really quite good. Dont tell Hope, but i think theyre better.
I'd rather buy from UK supplier, that's all.
I have made up some adaptors that take a 104 BCD chainring, DXF file available if anyone fancys a go, I use a 40t XT ring with a zee mech.
one chap made a 38-44 sandwich with it, he had to mod the RD to make it work.

Are people still having trouble with backpedalling the chain off, with Hope? Wasn't sure if that was a real problem or just setup issues but it seemed pretty common
I'm running two T-Rex's and I haven't experienced that problem. I do quite a bit of back peddling too on the more techy climbs when i need to avoid pedal strike. Were the reported issues on here?
Any chance you could send me the dxf? I have a similar project on the go. Email in profile. ThanksI have made up some adaptors that take a 104 BCD chainring, DXF file available if anyone fancys a go
I raised the inital thread about the backpeddling issue. It still happens but i never notice it on a ride, so its a non problem.
No problems with my Hope T-Rex back-pedalling, it's been faultless so far 😀
Gonna go for the E13, matches the Yeti nicely!

My wolftooth has been faultless. Bit chunkier than the oneup and its shimano/SRAM specific so no need for a spacer.
iffoverload, are you still selling them?
Work with shimano xt cassette?
M770? not 100% sure I dont have one handy, it wont work with the srams with alloy carriers like PG980 etc, the bolts clash with the 5 mounts unfortunately, you can only get 2 bolts in without removing a bit too much material for comfort!
If you have a 104BCD chainring handy line it up with the back of your cass to check if the bolts will clear.
Got an unused 42t,will have a look tomorrow. If OK will get back to you.
Cheers
I have a lightly used black OneUp for sale, if anyone needs one?
Hmmm,don't think it will work,as the xt has a 5 arm spider that looks the same as the 980.
How much do you want for it and is it 42?
42t black, have done about five rides on it
Not sure what the new price is. but how about two thirds of the new price, posted?
My email is in profile.....
Superstar are going to be selling them but I've no idea when they'll be released.

I imagine when he has had time to copy other manufacturers...
Plenty if options now, e13, twentysix, wolf tooth, oneup, hope and a host of small guys.

If it wasn't for any of the above 'copying' then SRAM and their ridiculous XX1 prices would be all we would have.
And then make them himself and knock them out cheaper than the rivals.
Its not a new business model and he does it rather well, what's your problem with it exactly?
No connection to superstar here other than being a brake pad fan.

At least two of the doods involved with Oneup are British (albeit living abroad) and they ship out of the UK IIRC.
