I wondewr if anyone can shed a little light on this for me please . Are the newer T type cranksets compatible with the older Eagle groupsets . I know they are 55 mm chainline where as boost is nortmally 52mm .. I like the intergrated bash rings and cranksets but im not a fan of the direct frame mounted rear mech and happy to say bye bye to a hanger and use my older Eagle stuff . Long and short is anyone using them with differnt chainrings or spacers ?
cranks would be compatible with a different chainring (either 3mm to run 55mm CL or 6mm for 52) but good luck finding a non-T-Type 8 bolt ring.
I believe the T-Type chainrings are backwards compatible with normal Eagle stuff. The compatibility chart from SRAM seems to confirm it.
Yep the chain rings mesh as normal, its been tested .
55mm chainline seems to work better with everything for me, but given the chainstay length, 3mm isn't huge. All seems quite irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.
I did read with the Dub wide axle Id need a 3mm spacer none drive side and 7.5 drive side , at the moment im running 4mm on the drive. might look all a little odd
