Where to find an old style chainring

specifically 1/8th 130 BCD that is similar to the sugino mighty comp ring.

like this one:


Either a shop that carries them or just a make/model that fits this description so i can hunt it down myself.

thanks

the style pictured is common with 144 and 151mm rings..
130mm is mostly associated with road cranksets

might be a tough bit to find, if there ever was one made

130bcd 1/8" rings are tough to find. I use TA Alize but they are not that style.

1/8 will be hard to find but you can certainly use a 3/32 with a 1/8 chain and if its that style is what the OP wants....3/32 might have to suffice and I think most of the takagi/older BMX ones are 3/32
