you choose tooth count, BCD, even how many bolt holes (ive been needing a 3 bolt for some cottered cranks) and even design. i dunno, kinda cool i guess if you are looking for something very specific....

sorry for sharing ;(
didn't know about that other site, indeed cheaper....but nothing about 3 or 4 bolt chainrings. although i dont think i would pay even a 1/3rd of that for a 3 bolt chainring for the cottered cranks i have.....

I've got one of the cycleunerground ones, #8 in black. ****ers is beefy. I've ridden it for about 2 years now with zero issues. reminds me of a great saying; something along the lines of, the best components are the ones you forget about

i thank jesus for my scrawny legs. those weaklings doing that summer ride around france use 110bcd, but skidding while riding to the bar merits 144bcd.

**** those lycra wussies, they don't know what it means to be putting out some real power. if i wasn't riding full njs i would have snapped so many bottom bracket spindles and crankarms. i don't want to even think about a non 144 chainring. hell, even that's pretty shady, i'm going to upgrade to 151 soon to kill all flex.

I almost tore my sister's jeans yesterday mashing past a bus to run a red light, I am the king of fixies

I'm never buying a non-110BCD crank again.

I'm actually partial to my 94BCD cranks, but that's a dead standard.
