Hey folks. I’m currently running a 46t chainring on my gravel/all purpose bike (Santa Cruz Stigmata v3) with a regular width crankset. Official clearance is 42t; it’s tight but so far not been an issue.
I’d like to go bigger since I sold my road bike and ride this bike a lot on flat roads with skinnier tires. The SRAM wide cranks add 2.5mm on either side; anyone here know how many extra teeth that buys me, chainring wise? I prefer not to try hacks with chainring bolt spacers or trying to space out my current drive side crank and spider.
Cheers!
