is there such thing as sugino chainring in 36 tooth to fit oild school spider or was 39t the smallest ?
-
I only remember them going as low as 39T, Nic says stuff like TA cranks went down to a 33T :daumenhoch:
-
mm was the ta cranks 4 bolt or 5 bolt?
i either need 36t to fit normal spider or 36t to fit 104 bcd 4 bolt spider ?
-
Nic says they were 5 bolt but didnt take a standard chainring.
Have you tried a specialist Race bike shop?
-
i can find some about for mtb in the right bcd problem is they are soooo expensive .prokchop do really nice one too but still looking at 30.00 up to 45.00 for a single speed one which to be honest is too much money for me on a chainring.
-
Would it not be cheaper to put a larger one on the rear Greg?
-
got a few small ones around greg. everything is boxed up right now so i cant check straight away.
-
it would b easierto leve as is with 44t 16 garingbut i wanna ride park ad track with this bike and ned small gearing so i dont catch chainrin on lips ec

Greg everyone was riding 44/16 in the parks and ramps till about 2002 ish
I and all the others were doing drop ins riding the ramps at Ramp city on old school bikes with 44t in January 2011 without problems
although I do also have 25/9 on my N/S ride
It's not essential is it , sometimes it's good to be different
Diggler's park/trails ride (DIRTBIKE 28lbs +) has 44/16 and he does just fine , he's sold his new school park bike :)
No need to catch your chainring ???

been up the track today and had a blast in the bowl on the MCS no catchy ringy for me, 44/16 you just ride in at a slightly shalower angle, and a bit faster, scares the shite out of ya :daumenhoch:
