sUm Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 To the best of my knowledge most chaingrings on the market fit your description. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skandy32 Posted December 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 To the best of my knowledge most chaingrings on the market fit your description. nope, i didnt think so.... The chainring im running at the mo will only fit a nice chunky bmx chain as its teeth are too wide ( and slightly too far apart ) to fit a mtb chain. I asumed all the chainrings that fitted 3piece cranks would have had the same result... no ? :huh: >_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sUm Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 (edited) Then try not buying a bmx chainring? :thumbsup: Try bikeparts.com, search for mtb chaingrings. Edited December 5, 2005 by sUm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_Tupman Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Try the DMR rings and possibly try searching for DH stuff as they run the setup your talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brisa Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 The DMR (saturn?) rings definately fit MTB chain pitch. Think there may be a BMX one also so best to check before you buy. A friend got his from Bikedock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
