Re: [RBW] Chainrings...when to replace?

[Steven Sweedler]

I have been using a Surly stainless middle ring on my touring bike. On a
new chain they will sometime exhibit chain suck for a hundred or so miles.
Still worth it in my opinion. Steve

Excellent point, Scott! Surly chainrings are on my list to try when it's 
time to replace my middle (which I ride 95% of the time).

With abandon,
Patrick

Sounds good!

Do they rust?
Are they alot heavier than alu rings?

They even say that when they wear out you can flip them and keep riding for 
another lifespan?

I am surprised Rivendell doesnt sell steel chainrings.

I'll just toss out Surly rings.They are really cheap and amazingly
durable.

You can get just about any size you like, in popular bolt patterns, the one
issue for some of you may be the full tooth profile.  No shifting help at
all.But did I mention that they are durable?

The only chainring I liked more were Salsa rings.  Engagement rings I
believe they were called, unfortunately discontinued a few years ago.

Ach, tis time to re chainring, or if it be symmetrical, without fancy
ramps, it may be reversed and ridden awhile before skipping intolerably.
Or, it'll ruin precious chain.

[RBW] Chainrings...when to replace?

[Lungimsam]

Juust starting to see a hint of shark toothing on my Sugino middle ring 
and big ring...

Noticing that dropping from the big ring onto the middle ring with my brand 
new chain hesitates sometimes, like the big ring goes around 1/2 turn 
before releasing it...jammed once into the derailer body on the way down 
once...didn't do this with my old chain...
