Non Removable Spider: Crankset
I have this crankset.
I need to replace the outside ring due to wear and have never replaced an outside ring before. However the description says "not removable spider", what does that mean? Also when i replaced the middle ring I ordered a steel ring because I believe all of these rings are steel, can anyone confirm this?
Product Description: Shimano M442 Mountain Cranksets. Removable Chainrings; Spider is not removable Square spindle hole

The spider is the part your chainrings bolt to. If you just want to replace the chainrings, then that's not a problem.

If you look at the tech docs, you can see the parts breakdown, it is a removable chainring https://techdocs.shimano.com/media/te...9830608883.pdf
