[Closed] What chainring for 1x10?

What make and model chainset is it?

what crankset have you got? If standard shimano type you'll need a chainring that has 104mm BCD.

You can get them from Shimano, Hope, Straitline, E-thirteen etc loads of choice.

Middle is the standard position, but the tabs are the same for most (all?) chainsets so if it fits the middle it'll almost certainly fit the other and vice versa.

Works Components get my vote for chainring- the thick/thin profile is 100% worthwhile, and the price is good. Raceface and others make them too though I've only tried Works.

works components , alternating thickness/height . no need for a chain device .

Cool. Yeah, it's a shimano crank. If middle is standard that's fine.

Thanks.

Goldtec's new thick thin offering

and the facebook page

Good to see Goldtec getting in on the act too..

I have a Works version and its been awesome so far.

Easily available fromt he UK:

Works Components
Raceface
Goldtec

Thoughts - Goldtec one looks naff and more expensive than both but will be well made, RF one available in pretty colours, looks good. Works one is cheapest and looks good but a weeks wait for one... take your choice!

Currently running a Hope 34T on the middle of an XT triple, works fine for me.

After having a chain guide for months, I took it off, fitted a clutch RM and didn't get a chain drop on a reasonable test ride.

I use an on-one unramped stainless chainring

No fancy tooth profile etc so chainguard advised.

I got an on-one chainring too and it's about to be replaced as it's so noisy.
