Edit 2 : Helped

EDIT: Help needed again.

I ordered this chainguide http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=1040 5-Bolt CD Black 38-44t

Right. Now the bashring on that won't fit my crank (my crank is 4-bolt)(yes, stupid mistake)

So I ordered this bashring http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=12167 4-Bolt 104mm 40t White

But now I see the Chainguide is "CD" which means Compact Drive, right? And the bashring is 104mmm

How do I know my crank will fit the guide and the ring??

Does the CD on the Chainguide refer ONLY to the included 5-bolt bashring (which I'm not using anyway, so it's cool, cuz my new bashring is 104mm which'll fit) ? Or does CD also refer to the chainguide...??? It has something to do with the crank's fitting right?

Please help!!

 

My current one:

Is it possible to replace the part that is 5-bolt?

 

Is it a separate bash guard?

 

[techguy]

Yes you can replace the bash guard separatley

I don't know exactly what the compact drive means but I suppose an important factor would also be the outer diameter of the bashring. If the upper guide is adjustable then it should work. If its for a fixed diameter then the ring and guide may not work together properly, as there might be enough of a gap for the chain to come off.

No I know about that. I have a 38t chainring, now ordered a new 40t bashring (Where the bcd is 104mm and it's 4-bolt ) and the guide suits 38-44t.. That's all fine.. But I want to know the info behind Compact Drive

bump!

[techguy]

CD may just be a part reference, Compact Drive is only really on a double chainring setup using a 40/29 set up, for XC,

[techguy]

The 104mm BCD one that you have now ordered should fit no problem

[darnijl]

Okay cool. Thanks
