Does anyone know if it’s possible to get a 30 tooth chainring for a 110BCD compact chainset?? And if so, where from??

Many thanks

    i think the smallest is 33T. but it is rare.

    It's easier to fit an MTB cassette and derailleur if you only need mega low gears once in a while. Otherwise get a triple!

    I agree. You can get a 33 from TA Specialties. 30T is impossible on a 110 bolt circle.

    That's what I thought - but someone had asked me about it the other day and I thought that maybe I was just making it up!!

    Cheers guys
