Hi,
Trying to gear-ize my single speed bike and realized that got little obsolete crankset with BCD 110, 5 bolts pattern.
Got 34T chainring at the moement but wanted to instal NW variation. Found some but the smallest one seems to be 36T.
Is that the smallest possible option - BCD 110 can go down to 33T on off-set standard chainring - for oval, or it is just me looking for very, very niche-obsolete standard?
Cheers!

Try superstar components, they have round or oval. Have 2 on cross bikes, work well
Often a discount available
Wolf Tooth, Raceface, Hope, Blackspire, Absolute Black all do round 110-5 narrow wide.
But for oval then minumum teeth are: Wolf Tooth (38), Rotor (38), AB (38), SS (36)
You just can't fit a 34 oval in a 110-5 shape. Something has to give.
oooh I've found you one...

they do a 34t oval 110-5 by the look of it. Niche ain't cheap ;o)
Thanks reggiegasket!
Indeed not a cheap option but as far as I know Garbaruk it is worth having a go.
Cheers!

Shirley a 34T 110 is going to ave **** all ovality?
110 BCD 5 bolt is not obsolete, it is the standard road compact size used by Shimano, Campagnolo, SRAM and others. I have used 110 for many years and have quite a few chainrings but none of them are NW. Not sure why you are using NW on single speed as there is no benefit to it and it is limiting your choices.

Not using yet. Want to use because:

As mentioned in first post.
I know that BCD110 is standard road compact drive pattern, but it is obsolete MTB pattern from the era of FC-M730.
Not looking for roadie rings, as thy are no use for me.

I’ve got a red 34t superstar nw 110 chainring in the shed. Let me know if you get stuck. Also got a 33t stainless ring.
Cancel the 33t. Went to the shed to check and it’s a 104bcd.
Sorry, didn't spot the word? gear-ize.
Googled for 5 seconds and it appears Hope retainer comes in 110 bcd 5 bolt NW 34t

Sorry, forgot to mention that prefer oval instead of round.
There are few round 34T options available.
Currently Garbaruk is top of the list anyways.
Cheers!
