Hi all,
I just recently completed my single speed upgrade/build (Pictures will come up once I get batteries for the digital). Anyways the cranks I got are some type of specialized (Perhaps strongarm which is a mtb crank). I wanted to run a 48 tooth and purchased the cranks and chainring used and the person goofed on ebay and the chainring was 45 tooth. I tried the bike out yesterday after assembling everything and the gear ratio 45/16 is too low for me. I think I want to go back to a 52/16 but cannot find a chainring with 52 teeth for 94mm bcd. after looking around on the internet I honestly cant seem to find a 94mm bcd with 52 teeth (the highest I saw was 45 or 46). do they make them, and can someone lead me in the direction to one. thanks
