Interesting product, good price, but out of stock. And while they ship to places like Iraq, they don't ship to USA. 🤣
Seems like Garbaruk 104BCD ring in 30T explicitly claims compatibility with OChain, as well as shimano HG+ which is nice. That might be the ticket… I spend a ton of time in granny gear so hopefully the 2mm offset isn’t too bad.
How did you get 150 mm out of a tall boy?!
With a Cascade link pushing on a Marzocchi Bomber CR in 7.5" x 2.0" size (instead of the stock 190mm x 45mm).
Travel is just under 150mm, it's the best "trail bike" I have ever had.
I posted in USD, still haven’t seen anything as cheap as you mention
The amount of chain dancing on my 2020 slayer is insane.
The right side of my rear rim is full of little nicks from the chain taking bites out of it and the crank arm on my trailing foot has been worn away in a distinctly chain-like pattern.
STFU seems to have worked well for me.
Not really an on the fly adjustment, the dial is rather hard to turn. Something you would change based on the trails you are riding or the course you are racing, not something you would adjust at the top of every climb in my experience at least.
I used that same ring on my non adjustable Ochain with a little grinding, but found that would require grinding to the point of it will probably fail quickly in order to clear the adjust knob on the adjustable version.
