doppelganger Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 Thats what I did, managed to get an e-thirteen guide off the hub and running my standard 33T middle ring. Have a normal X7 RD and haven't had any problems so far.Dont even try without the guide, utter nightmare!!! I am riding without a clutch derailleur and no guide with my raceface NW ring. I have not yet thrown the chain. I have actually tried to...but couldn't. I can even lose another link on my chain, which I will remove soon. Hope I'm not speaking to soon but so far I'm extremely happy with this chainring.

Jip no guide needed with a NW ring but the guy was questioning using just a stanrd middle ring on his 3x10 set. Will need a guide then.

patches Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 I've got another NW so I may test it out on the 9sp lang cage X0 setup. I am nervous though about the lack of clutch, even though I've heard good reports on 9sp systems.
Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 That csixx guide is really nice, love the carbon!!

Eldron Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Just a quick note that is probably covered in the thread but I can't remember seeing it.... You need to mount the chain correctly - the chainring is narrow-wide-narrow-wide etc. You need to match it to the narrow wide narrow wide of the chain. You only have a 50% chance of getting it right without checking :-) RockCoach, divernick and Steven Knoetze (sk27) 3

It simply just slipped into the correct place.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 So Where can i buy the small Chainring Bolts? Except from Chain-reaction? What chainset did you have previously? 3x10? 2x10?
