Fixed Charge Plug 1/8 3/32?
Just rebuilt my Charge Plug Freestyler with many issues, going fixed saved some headaches though not what I initially wanted I'm happy with it. Just wondering whether I would be better converting the whole chainset to 1/8, are there any issues or premature wear problems running wider chains on narrow chainrings?
Just ordered kmc Z610 hx which is 3/32 the same as the chainring & a dura-ace track sprocket but crc didn't provide on option for width :?

3/32 is the width - running everything the same width is best. You can run a slightly wider 1/8 chain on 3/32 sprockets and chainring - can be useful to "soak up" a less than perfect chainline, but not what you'd choose if you were buying new components all round.
In short - everything looks compatible.

on eBay the new ones were too much faff to fit so decided upon fixed gear
Just hoping the dura-ace sprocket that crc send is 3/32 as the chain and chainring, thank you for putting my mind at rest with the 1/8 compatibility0
