Why do my single speed chain ring bolts spin?
I have some cheaper Sugino track bolts and a couple of them spin (they don't tighten) but they aren't stripped.
What causes this? Would the models with the knurled bottoms solve my problem?:( |
The nuts are too big? Common problem.
and by big I mean long. |

Aren't all ss chainring bolts standard length? Only two of the bolts spin, the other three are OK
|
is the chainring loose on the spinners?
do you use a screw driver on the nut side? |

This is the new Origin 8 144 bcd chainring I was installing and the bolt circle holes seem kind of deep-that maybe the problem, but that would put them out of business if Origin make faulty chainrings? |

Just reverse the ring so that the recess is on the 'inside'. If the chainring bolts/nuts are still too long just marginally, you can easily file down the nut part so that it will clear, and tighten down. |
