Hi all, have searched but couldn't find a definite answer
I want to change my Shimano Deore triple to a double by removing the outer chainring and replacing the middle chain ring.
What type of chainring do I need? Would it be just a standard ring or do I need to get one with shift ramps etc? I've seen standard 36T anodised rings (not narrow wide) but will it still shift ok??
Hope that makes sense! Thanks

Stick with ramps, you still want to change gear.I don't do smileys.

Do they make anodised/coloured rings with ramps or am I stuck with the pressed steel naff looking Shimano ones????0 -
I assume so, but I've but I've never really got emotionally involved with a chain ring.I don't do smileys.

Cheers, I went with replacing the outer ring with a bash guard, not much weight saving but looks a bit better without the massive chainring which I rarely used, should give a bit more ground clearance.0
