:( Nooo

How the hell???

All the power in the world shouldn't have done that - assuming that the chain is correctly aligned along the line of the chainring then any power should be transferred to the back wheel - nothing laterally to pull the ring out of shape... I'd be questioning the materials used in that!

 

[Joe24]

Utter utter bullshit.

Whats done it Mickle?
Help

 

[Joe24]

whoa too far

Awww whats wrong with a man hug?

 

[Night Train]

I've done that before

With a big hammer and puller though.

Maybe you need something more able to handle your super powers like this.

 

[mr Mag00]

i reckon you dumped it on the corner of a table doing a track stand on said table

The van drivers that came past laughing can back me up

Maybe you could carve your next one out of a Fray Bentos tin, it should be stronger than your last.

I've done that before on a pace chainring.

Cheap sh!t parts/ four arm spider/ too small BCD for ring size/ cheap shoot parts/ loose ring bolt/ your immense thighs.

Pressed steel chain-ring right?

No idea, its a Sturmey Archer thing the bike shop got.

I like the idea of immense thighs though, can we go with that one

 

[dan_bo]

i'd agree with most of that!

Cheese! I knew it!
Let me guess, umm...
...Gouda?

The fixed is broken again
Whilst powering off from some lights in Kirby-in-Ashfield, this happened

Thats a new crankset that i got at the start of this month(i think)
Powered off, and it was only the push down pull up and my legs were just spinning. Looked down and saw that
Took to bike shop, they guy reckons its the frame that has flexed alot when i powered and so the chainring just bent. He asked if i had crashed it first
So i now need a new chainring, and probably a new frame if it is the frame flexing. It does flex alot

C**P what a load of C**P

I would not have thought you did it, more likely a manufacturing defect, incorrect item fitted.

Imagine Chris Hoy getting away at the lights, he'd have to make his chainrings out of kryptonite!!!

Spot on

You had a road ring on they are not made for all that force what you need is is a single speed ring ie one for a 1/8 chain like a BMX chain ring. I hope you are ok mate

 

[Joe24]

This is the only one that sort of looks like the one i have, and is the same number of teeth(44)
And if that is the one, then its an ali chainring.
