Topic starter
 

Vectiox are advertising a new narrow-wide chainring that's going to be cheaper than any others on the UK market. I am thinking of pre-ordering one. Obviously no comments on the rings yet as they've not been made available, but they say they're good to go from the end of the month.

If they simply do the job then others will start to get competitive on price!

They are also on ebay.

I wonder if Works Components are making them for them? Works announced they may me making a 'cheaper' ring (what I read was £30) on Facebook recently and it looked just like this one....

More competition can only be a good thing though....

Just looked on a screen bigger than a phone... I agree, not the same teeth...

See what happens when they become available, sod all point in waiting a month to save a fiver though.

Another UK brand Rideworks are getting ready to release their NW chain rings very soon, they also make SS chain rings, and are putting the finishing touches to a killer set of hubs.

As much as I would like to support a British business i.e.Vectiox
when I can get a better looking ring which is probably lighter too shipped from the states for less money(such as the Raceface NW recently purchased from Trailthis on ebay) then as a cheap skate my money goes there.
