Da bomb Ti chainring bolts on XTR w/ The Machinist chainringAnders

Got them from hibike.de. Has a cool darkgray colour, that matches our chinrings nicely on the XTR crankset. They were onlu 25.9euro, not that bad for TI bolts. The weight is 16gram for a 5pcs. outer set.
Don't suppose you've calculated the overall weight saving....Gaz

...between triple XTR standard and duo with your rings and those nice ti bolts? My granny ring and four XTR bolts weiged in at 34.1g when I took them off.

The chainrings are 10grams lighter a piece, so that makes 20grams. The granny weigh 30grams and the bolts about 6grams (they are steel).

My Ti bolts weigh about 12grams (4pcs.). The aluminium about 6grams

This makes the whole XTR set weigh 750grams with Ti chainring bolt and 738grams with aluminium bolts.

I'm running them now, and they shift very well and will hold up a lot longer the the original. I have 6 set (44/32) ready.
