New chainring prob?
Hi my chain was worn so fitted new one but this new one slipped on the cassete, & the big ring so also, so iv'e fitted a new cassete new a & big ring.
Obviously I had left the old chain on to long it seems. The original cassete was pretty new & didn't look worn, but big ring teeth were visibly pretty worn & needed replacing.
The new chain runs ok on the new casette & the new big chainring, but the chain now rubs on the inside of new big chain ring while in the small ring & in the 4 small cogs on the 8 speed cassete. Its always rubbed if I cross chain on the smalleset cog, & slightly on the second one, but now its really bad up to cog 4.
Its a 53t ring rather than the old 52t wonder if this is part of the cause?

Yes, slightly larger diameter, also different manufacturing tolerances means it may be sitting slightly closer to the small chain ring.0

I tried spacing it futher out by fitting washers on the chain bolts but that ruined the shifting
.
The crank & old chainring is miche & the new chainring is this campy victory,
Can't seem to source a replacement miche big ring of the right 116 bcd.
Think I will end up having to fit a new crankset.0
