What replacement chainring do I need?
Chainrings are available in different sizes. To select the correct one, you'll need to know three things:
The number of chainring mounting bolts, either 4 or 5.
The number of teeth on the chainring.
The Bolt Circle Diameter (BCD). The BCD is the diameter of the circle running thru the mounting bolts.
The first two are easy. Just count the bolts attaching the chainring to the crank and count the number of teeth on the ring. The chainring may be stamped with the number of teeth. For the BCD the charts below will help. Measure the distance between the centers of adjacent bolt holes, then refer to the appropriate chart.
