Hi,

I have the X7 2x10 GXP setup (39t/26t).

Having neglected monitoring of my chain over the winter month I am just replacing the cassette and chain and thinking I should probably change the 39t chainring as well (the 26t has had little use).

The chainring states it is a 120bcd but trying to fins the appropriate ring is impossible! I have found this e13 variant:

http://www.wiggle.co.uk/ethirteen-120bcd-4mm-2x10-guidering/

but am not convinced as it seems the same as this one on CRC which indicates it is for a 1 x 8/9 (so not even 10spd).

http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=70951

1. Do I need to change the chainring? Is there a way I can check?
2. Are the e13 variants suitable?
3. If not what do i need and can anyone direct me there?

Thx
Ian

    SRAM 2x10 have there own BCD so it will be fine aso the teeth width is the same.

    Thanks for the quick response. So the BCD and teeth spacing will be fine. Any views on whether it is suitable for a 2x10 setup?

    Thx
