Frequently Asked Questions
Will this chainring fit my crankset?
This ring fits cranksets that use a 64mm BCD with a 4-bolt pattern and accept a 24T inner ring. Verify your crank spider's BCD measurement and bolt pattern; the SRAM model ID CR-MLEG-64-A1 can help confirm compatibility with Truvativ/SRAM systems.
Is this chainring compatible with 10- or 11-speed chains?
It's designed for 9-speed drivetrains. While a 10-speed chain may physically fit, shifting performance and chainwear characteristics can differ—using rings matched to your chain speed is recommended for best shifting and longevity.
Does the inner ring include shift ramps and pins?
The product notes indicate that middle and outer rings in the set come with shift ramps. This inner ring is optimized for strength and tooth geometry; it is intended to work with ramped middle/outer rings in a compatible triple setup rather than relying on inner-ring ramps.
How hard is it to install this ring?
Installation is straightforward for any mechanic comfortable removing a crank and swapping chainrings. Use the correct torque for your chainring bolts, ensure the ring is oriented correctly as the inner position, and re-check chainline and shifting after reinstalling the crank.
Why choose steel over aluminum chainrings?
Steel sacrifices some weight for significantly greater abrasion resistance and impact durability. For riders who encounter rocks, roots or heavy use, steel rings last longer and tolerate damage better than thin aluminum rings, making them economical for tough trail conditions.
Can I use this ring for single-ring conversions?
Not recommended without confirming chainline and bolt-circle compatibility. Single-ring (1x) setups usually use narrow-wide rings or direct-mount components specifically engineered for chain retention. This inner ring is intended for triple setups and standard chain retention strategies.
Buying Guide
When selecting a replacement inner chainring, prioritize matching BCD, bolt pattern, and drivetrain speed. For 9-speed triple setups, a 64mm BCD 4-bolt ring is the standard spec; staying with the same tooth count preserves gearing and front derailleur trim. Choose steel if you ride rocky trails, carry loads, or want a low-cost, long-lasting option. If weight and race performance are critical, look for aluminum or specialty lightweight rings—but expect shorter service life in aggressive conditions.
