All 12 Steve. If you use the SunRace cassette or the lower end SRAM NX cassette. The Shimano 12sp is a new hub to cassette interface. So is SRAM’s GX, XX1 and all others higher than NX - they use xd. -J -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners B

You can fit a 12 speed cassette on a 7 speed freehub?  How many out of the 12 do you use? (Still smiling about "Eight of Nine on Seven", brings her... Image result for seven of nine to mind every time On 11/23/18 6:27 PM, Justin, Oakland wrote: Gabriel- On a 7/8/9 you can also use 12 speed S

Gabriel- On a 7/8/9 you can also use 12 speed Sunrace cassettes. I would skip 11 and go to 12 if buying today. Depending on what you ride and how much you really need either the low end 50 cog or the tightly spaced gears I’d actually go 10 as it’s becoming the de facto “not cutting edge” standar

Gabe, can you send a pic or link of the cranks you're looking at? I should be able to determine the bottom bracket situation if I see them. Eric, the "loose chain" situation doesn't apply for those 1x narrow-wide chainrings. I can use an 8-speed chain on the ring I pictured. -- You received

I have bought XD2 cranks (with crown logo) from sellers other than Riv, and you can find them sold elsewhere. I don't believe Riv has an exclusive on them. On Friday, August 8, 2014 9:42:32 AM UTC-4, Garth wrote: > > Yep, you guys got it as far as I can tell . Yes it's the same crank arms > w

Yep, you guys got it as far as I can tell . Yes it's the same crank arms with OEM rings . The arms themselves are called XD(or XD2), when sold as complete unit of Al rings in 46/36/26, then the 600 is added to the name, and called the 300 if the middle ring is steel. It's called the 500 Spec

It's different because that picture is mistakingly for the 152mm version, which uses 50/36/24 rings. Also, If you look at the end of the arm around the pedal area, it's slightly different(not as rounded) than the 160mm+ versions. The 152mm version uses a slightly different mold. I have 175's a

There seem to be variations of Sugino cranks with similar names. The variety comes in the chainrings, some with ramps'n'pins (like your example), some with steel grannys, some with steel middles and /or outers. Another variation is tooth counts: 24/36/46; 26/36/46; 24/36/48. No huge differe
