Hi there - i am a newb in the MTB space, Have done a good deal of research and bought a Grand Canyon 7. link here: [image] Grand Canyon 7 This modern hardtail brings together a lightweight, aluminium frame with 120 mm of responsive suspension and a dropper post for better handling and…

You’ll need to ask canyon about that. I’m sure it clears 34 but 36 can be iffy.

fantastic. thanks for your help. i think i might just try grab a 32 and a 34t then and use the Truvativ if DUB is DUB is DUB ! haha

I agree the easiest thing here would be to just get new chainrings… However, chainrings usually come in 3 offsets. Make sure you get the 3mm otherwise your chainline is going to be off.

Truvativ is a SRAM product. The Stylo series is heavier and aimed more at park rats or Enduro etc where the cranks are likely to get a beating. And they’re cheaper than GX so get specced on price point bikes. As mentioned above, the chainring mounts the same so long as it is spiderless. Two thing…

[image] sandilandscycles: i was concerned about whether i’d be able to go up to a 36 clearance wise - ? Unless you are a pro, you should not be using a 36-tooth chain ring. Like others have said, for that reason many frames don’t even work with 36-teeth chain rings. A 30 is fine, and I certa…

This entirely depends on where you live and how fit you are. If you live at elevation and do a lot of climbing, sure then a 30t might be a good idea. If you’re >4watt/kg and live in a flat area 36t is certainly a good fit, maybe even a 38t. I personally hardly use the 50t on the back and run a 36t …

Ahh, yes! My bad. Here’s a massive SRAM logo next to a small amount of information: Service | SRAM And a better explainer: Direct Mount Chainrings for SRAM Cranks – Wolf Tooth Components

Totally get you! i was going off what @Jonathan said in a youtube clip about suing a 36 for workouts on the road. i was thinking 32 for fireroad climbs. but on 1-5% tarmac for TR workouts i was thinking perhaps more. i am far from being a pro but am just over 5w/kg atm thanks for your help!
