    Default Think I need chain rings

    I believe I have worn out my chain rings on my bike! I thought the middle one was bent, however I think it is bent out between each mounting point! I will pretend it happened because of my awesome power and not due to low end parts!
    I am now looking for a replacement. And no Gunchie I am not buying a new bike.
    If someone has decent used I will buy or taking suggestions on what is inexpensive but not crap.

    Sounds like you bent it with your awsome power. You you to upgrade to a better part. I saw this happen to a guy at SCP a couple years ago. Bent his chain rings and casset. Cheap parts, upgrade.
    You'd understand if you know what I was talking about.

    I might be open to selling the crankset off my hifi, it won't be going back on. I believe the middle chain ring has a couple hundred miles on it. The crank arms have the paint warn off from the heat generated by the incredible cadence I am able to hold on a regular basis. That or my shoes rubbing on them.
