Thanks, has anyone taken off the chainring on these before..I'm not sure what tool to use.If this chain brakes on me a lot, then I'm going to go back to my kink.To do that, I'd need to put a spacer behind the chainring.I don't know how to get the damn thing off..

any help on that would be sweet and thanks man..

You're right about the F chainring, but the front is a 2.7..I kept thinking the damn thing was an 18t, so use to my mods.Thanks for the catch man, I would of been like WTF this gear ratio blows..lol.I am going to change to to 16/14 should be pretty good..

I might have to chage the ratio..

you need the xtr bb tool http://www.webcyclery.com/product.php?productid=17682&cat=383&page=3

or just use a flat screw driver and hammer to undo the lockring...

btw, why don't you use the "built in" chain tensioner of the frame?

That's a super pro, it's one piece. You can't insert spacers.

You need one of these pieces of awesomeness to run 18 on Middleburns-

As per your IM question-

I think you have to use their chainring, it's nine holes. But it comes with it.

I had it hanging around and someone convinced me into trying it out..We'll see how it feels, I can always go to a smaller one..
