The ultimate black 38t oval ring arrived on Monday and with a bit of “what have you” it’s now firmly attached to my new Sonder Camino al.
The only ride so far is up and down my road and whilst as steep as you like is not as yet the test.
Once this shocking weather passes through I’ll be hacking out again.
I think it looks pretty good as well.


Is this your first go at 1x?
I went 1x last year when I converted my Orange 5 from 3x
Getting the gearing right, building confidence and the legs to be able to ride the Pennines which is coming I honestly would never come away from 1x
@montylikesbeer - have you got a link for that? I was looking for a 38T SRAM version last year but couldn't find one.
