i have a m752 crank with worn out, broken tooth chain rings. i want to replace the rings with larger ones but finding a set is a problem. enter fsa pro rings 104/64 48/36/26t, i can call them and order the set. will they fit?

non shimano, after market chainrings offer alternate tooth sizes..

call who?
manufacturers ship to distributors, the distributors ship to retailers.

Retailers sell to you..

the importing company representatives they may answer questions, about their products
but the goods flow through the above chain.

well fsa has a web store and i did not see any mention about being a dealer. i did not see the pro rings listed on their web store so i sent them an email, stating i has interested to purchase a set, the reply was to give them a call and order them. that's the story.

If the bolt circles match they should work fine. Call to confirm there isn't a spacing issue but I expect it isn't a problem.

i have a new alivio crank that has the same bolt pattern and i dissembled it to see if i could use the rings on the xt crank. the holes lined up but the lip the ring drops on did not. the bolt circle is not the sole consideration.
