    If it’s in the same place as an existing chainring I can’t see why it would be a problem mate

    Yea the narrow wide chainrings are great I took my stinger off & I haven’t dropped the chain since doing so I would recommend the bash guard as the chainrings are made out of aluminium so easy to wreck if you hit them

    I reckon you won’t have any probs, just bolt on a narrow wide chainring maybe a bash guard a 40t sprocket at the back a few extra chain links & you’ve practically got a 1 x 11 set up for a tenth of the price

    The long cage mech won’t cause you any problems & if you go for the 40t sprocket on the rear it is really the ideal one to use, I found chain line wasn’t a problem as you aren’t really altering anything, what bike are you riding mate & what cranks

    Yea oneup designed the 40t for the zee mech so you swap out the 15 & 17 sprockets & put a 16 in & the 40 behind the 36 on your cassette I’ve run mine for a few months now with out any bother

    2 weeks worth of riding even some downhill tracks at wharncliffe, I can honestly say no probs at all. So santa cruz heckler with zee drive train & oneup 40t expander sprocket is a definite winner

    Some valid points but I’m not sure how often if ever you would go through all your travel in the 40t sprocket surely it’s just a bail out gear for steep climbs?

    I may stand corrected but ive had a few rides & it seems perfect. I’ll reserve judgement but yea oneup say the zee mech will work with a 40t sprocket

    The 40t sprocket comes from oneup components it comes with a 16t sprocket as well & the instructions are simple It only took three days to come
