Yes, exactly that, but preferably locally. Want to fit it before December and don't want to risk waiting for overseas packages that might not get here in time.

JohanDiv Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 I just might have a pretty good one at home. What kind of rush are you in? It is a wolftooth. Need to check the BCD. R100 if it works and you want it? Ai Copperhead, already placed and paid my order at Csixx.. But, thanks!
JohanDiv Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 Siiighhhh..... the struggle is starting to feel real.
lechatnoir Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 Siiighhhh..... Screenshot_20191112-143602_Gallery.jpg the struggle is starting to feel real. on a day like today, or week like this week, the struggle will be immense in one direction and non-existent in the other...
droo Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 At least shipping was quick! They'll sort it out fast as well if you point out the error of their ways. This is Cape Town mey bru. Missing teeth is nothing new here. 4 short. It's traditional.
JohanDiv Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 They'll sort it out fast as well if you point out the error of their ways. Yeah, already sorted. The 36T is on its way, and the 32T on its way back. Mistakes happen sometimes and at least they are easy to deal with..
Dicky DQ Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 Thanks for the replies. Still I'm not getting anything bigger than 34t compatible with 96 BCD cranks (not even wolftooth). I'm just a bit surprised that the "new standard" doesn't offer much in terms of top end speed. What chainrings do the pro's use when racing flatter races, do they go back to 2x setups?I have an absolute black 36 with the 96BCD. But I paid 750 zar for it about 9 months ago from the LBS.
DieselnDust Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 Yeah, already sorted. The 36T is on its way, and the 32T on its way back. Mistakes happen sometimes and at least they are easy to deal with.. They would probably have swapped it within 5 secs of you walking through the door
Cotic Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 A 34 nw oval is equal to a 36 round.Just remember when it come to racing and the profiles we race Don't go much bigger than a 34 oval
DieselnDust Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 34 oval is a 34.a 36 is a 36.. There's no magic here, just numbers
JohanDiv Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Just remember when it come to racing and the profiles we raceDon't go much bigger than a 34 The thing is I have a 11-50 Sunrace cassette. With my 34T I ride the entire Paarl Mountain and not touch the 50 and 42 ring, just on the one climb I sometimes need the 36 ring to just get over the very top. The rest of the time I'm only using the 11-32 range of my cassette. The 36T will allow me to actually use my entire cassette. I'll still swap the 36T out for my 34T for races like Imbuko Big 5 or Atta though
Hairy Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Instead of starting a new frred, I'm just going to ask here on this old one... Where can I find a 36T narrow-wide 96BCD chainring? LBS don't have. All the online shops I can think of don't have, or are out of stock. TIA!!someone just posted this add https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/390966-csixx-36t-96-bcd-chainring/
