Nino, More chainring questions... (8 posts)
|  Nino, More chainring questions... | Alan
Mar 22, 2002 8:11 AM | | Looking at the roadbike chainring photo you supplied, it appears that you remove a lot of metal...You don't have any fear of the ring failing? I would hate to muscle up a hill to find the ring shatter and my jewels hit the toptube... |

just use some common sense when doing such tuning!my set of rings on my MTB weighs just 100g...works fine since 2 years.shifts as before.what else could you ask for?
my 532g crankset (including 14g FRM Al crank-fixing bolts):

Mar 22, 2002 10:26 AM | | Nino, I hope that's a picture from awhile ago... because if those are 2 year old chainrings, you must be the most neurotic bike-cleaner in history...do you disinfect your bikes regularly, too? :) |

Mar 22, 2002 11:56 AM | | I changed chainrings but the setup remained the same.the picture was taken after i built up of my new bike this year. |
| Tune Bigfoots? | Andystrike10
Mar 22, 2002 12:27 PM | | Nino, how do the Bigfoots compare to your old RF turbine LP's in stiffness? If they had made these in ISIS I would have fitted some to my Scott. Interested to know what they are like. |

Mar 22, 2002 1:07 PM | | yes-Tune crankarms.they look more flexible for sure but to tell you the truth i can`t tell the difference!maybe the Scott frame is much stiffer than the s-works i had but i can`t tell about added flex.(I weigh 155 lbs).I have another set on my roadbike and same story there.
