Shimano Centerlock Lock Rings

joejoe

Does anyone know who should supply these? (the screw in ring that holds the centerlock rotor in)

.....I bought XT wheels, XT Brakes and XT Rotors from various websites all separately but the lock in rings were not included with any of them....

Should they have been included in any of the above packages?

If not, does anyone know where to buy them from? I can't find them anywhere!

Thanks

They should come with the wheels/hubs.

joejoe

Thanks Nick I'll contact the website I bought the wheels from and ask.

If they cannot oblige, does anyone know where you can buy them from?

If you can't source them from the seller, pop down to your local bike shop, and ask for a cassette lockring, they're the same.

The 11T rings can be too small one off a 12T cassette or bigger is better. This is presuming you don't need the lock rings that yes the BB tool. 20mm front etc.

Really? Mine are precisely the same size as an 11T lockring, on a 12mm thru-hub.

i never got them with any c lock wheels I have ordered, hmmm. They have come with the rotors though.

I got a black one with the rotor, and a gold one with the Saint hub.

I have a spare 20mm C lock ring if anybody needs it.

Well the 11T ring I used did not really hold it correctly works fine.


I wonder if shimano changed their policy with the lock rings.

Thanks for all of the advice - good idea about the cassette lock ring ....I'll just buy a pair of them from ebay and job done. Thanks for the offer supersonic but I need 2 so might as well get both from ebay.

Thanks again
