Johnny 55 Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Hi guys, im thinking of replacing my Gx 12 speed crank with a X0 10 speed carbon crank. Will the X0 fit? I cant see why not. Thanks.
Schnavel Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 It will work, however, I would recommend changing the chain ring. The 10 speed chainring isn't a narrow wide version, meaning you would likely experience some dropped chains.
Sidmouth Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 I suggest getting a narrow wide 11/12 speed Chainring with the correct BCD to fit that carbon 10 Speed crank
BaGearA Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Hi guys, im thinking of replacing my Gx 12 speed crank with a X0 10 speed carbon crank. Will the X0 fit? I cant see why not. Thanks.Many things to consider Like is the spindle gxp,bb30,dub ? Bcd or direct mount compatibility ? Crank arm length ? Photos will be a good start
Johnny 55 Posted December 18, 2018 Author Posted December 18, 2018 Ok cool thanks. Yes i will change the chainring also. Thanks again.
droo Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 It should have a removable spider, so just remove the spider and put a direct mount narrow wide ring on. Job done.
Johnny 55 Posted December 18, 2018 Author Posted December 18, 2018 Mine is gxp, not dub, direct mount chainring. Not sure what the arm lenght is.Longest arms that there is.
droo Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Then you're winning. Millions of options for a direct mount 12 speed NW ring, just make sure you get the right offset for your frame.
steveO:K Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 6mm offset for GXP. 3mm may work if you're running boost.
PeterF Posted December 19, 2018 Posted December 19, 2018 I installed a 2012 SRAM XO crank to my 2018 Scott Spark, just fitted a 3mm offset Absolute Black direct mount chainring and works like a charm.
Eddy Gordo Posted December 19, 2018 Posted December 19, 2018 I have a dm 6mm offset sram chainring for sale
DieselnDust Posted December 19, 2018 Posted December 19, 2018 Hi guys, im thinking of replacing my Gx 12 speed crank with a X0 10 speed carbon crank. Will the X0 fit? I cant see why not. Thanks. If GXP then just remove the 4 bolt spider and fit a 6mm offset Xsync Direct Mount chain-ring for a std 142mm x 12mm rear axle setup or3mm offset Xsync Direct Mount chain-ring for Boost set up. Where you may run into a problem is the Q factor. IS your crank a Q156 or Q168?IF Q168 then you are good to go.
