Out for a ride yesterday doing a climb and went for 42t ring with a almighty crunch no rocks in sight, stopped to find a huge piece of the alloy 42t ring missing from the xx1 cassette.

Anyone had this happen? no rock strikes involved I can only think a shearing sideways loading caused it as it was very steep.
I've seen the Oneup and other manufacturers replacement rings, anyone fitted one ? any success?

Cheers
Mark

I'd be asking SRAM about warranty first

Fitted a one-up 44 from new on mine as I wanted the extra range..

Shifts fine.. but you can feel the jump in ratios a bit more..

It Took ages to fit fully on though as the prongs were quite tight.. tap tap.. turn.. tap tap turn.. and repeat... and repeat..

am using an XT Mech with a goatlink.
