Hi there

Might be going mad, but I remember a mate telling me that at one point, he had a mountain bike that had five chain rings. I said that no bike has that many gears, and that you must be confusing it with the back, but he remained adament that there were 5 chain rings on the crank, and not the block.

Has anyone out there seen such a crank set?

    If it existed, it will have been a special one off that somebody's made in their shed. No companies have ever done one.

    Moore Large sold a bike with a quad chainset.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.
