I’m having a nightmare trying to source a simple road chainring!

Got a SS road bike with a perfectly good White Industries square taper BB and some generic chainset which is now on it’s last legs. I’ve got a lovely set of Middleburn square taper cranks ready to go onto the existing BB.

But I can’t for the life of me find a simple 48T 130BCD singlespeed road ring! Come on mighty STW, what can you find me?

Salsa/QBP/Dimension?

I’ve had a couple of 104bcd 48Ts from Charlie. I’d give him a ring.

Plenty at velosolo

What do I win?

Pipped to the post on velosolo

Got a black one on my pompino. Finish is holding up well.

Ummm… How hard did you try? just been a googlin’ and there are plenty.

?

Do you need it in 7-arm or something?

Have a look at some of the Thorne ones at SJS. Last for ever and also are reversable (as all are really!) as well.

Stronglight chainrings in 5 arm available from 46 tooth and upwards at £21 each retail.

Goldtec are nice. http://www.mountainbikecomponents.co.uk/goldtec-fixie-and-singlespeed-road-track-rings

Or Hubjub have a few. http://hubjub.co.uk/cranks-and-chainrings-8-c.asp

not cheap, but have you looked at Renthal ones? Got one from Tim for my mongrel road SS, cracking ring (!)

Pretty sure I have a new 48t 130bcd track/SS ring in the loft, drop me a mail and I’ll check tonight

Ribble always have a good selection of chainrings:

130mm 48T £12.60

Stronglight or TA from SJS or Spa, there’ll be a fair selection

Edit – I would guess Middleburn themselves do one as well

130bcd is Miche Primato size, isn’t it?

My mistake, they’re 144bcd. Plenty of 130bcd chainrings at velodromeshop though

Middleburns look great with a Surly stainless steel chainring. Available in your size.

And it’s a SSSSS chainring which should appeal to the SSer in you… 🙂

Think I’ve got a dinner plate sized renthal SS front ring in commuting on the flat size, maybe 48 but I’d have to go and check…..
Ah ha just re read your post, think the one I have is 104BCD

Doh….
