    No, you don't need to. Hmm, so the black ring is the favourite. What about the blue Garbaruk chainring, did you show it to her or is it on order? 😇 https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/swap-como-4-0-48t-chainring-with-vado-4-0-40t-chainring.36763/post-357947 Anyway, always listen to...

    If you're intending to use your Specialized chainguard with the Deckas 48T chainring it would be a good idea to now lay the Specialized chainring over the Deckas and mark the position of the 4 holes where you need to drill in the Deckas chainring.

    Here is the link to a new version of that general Shimano document DM-GN0001-24.ENG: https://si.shimano.com/#/en/DM/GN0001 but on page 141 ff. the hints are for Shimano double or triple chainwheel sets only. No hints for single setups like Vado and Como have. No differentiation between...

    Please don't mix up things again that have been elaborately clarified. You swapped your Specialized 40T chainring to a Specialized 48T chainring. As both of them have threads in the chainring and do not use the 2-piece-chainringbolts, there is no need to hold a part of the bolt from the back...

    Parktool general guideline calls up 44-88 inch-pound for aluminium chainring bolts, that equals 5-10 Nm (Parktool: 70-124 inch-pounds for steel bolts). 5 Nm seem too low to me but you should be fine with 9-10 Nm. You could fasten the chainring bolts with cable ties in addition as a security...

    Swap Como 4.0 48T chainring with Vado 4.0 40T chainring

    No problem at all in using the 2-piece-chainringbolts, there is a lot of space. I can't remember the torque specs presently but think I've used the usual ones for "allen 5 / M8". And Loctite blue. Aluminium = class 5.6 = 11-12 Nm: https://www.anzugsmoment.de/anzugsmoment/

    Garbaruk has a chainring in matching (?) blue colour which you could add to your collection. :cool: : https://www.garbaruk.com/104-bcd-round.html?page=2&category=1&attrib= And you could keep your pedals. :) It even has longer teeth. But better check with them whether it fits.

    Swap Como 4.0 48T chainring with Vado 4.0 40T chainring

    I was referring to the offer I had linked: 6.5mm for single ring and 8.5mm for double ring. So it's not "unique" and you could be fine with 6mm length.

    Welcome here and thanx for your input. 👍 ad 1. Problematic point could be as Sierratim has shown: is the 52T chainring to big at the rear for a Vado? You might be the first to test the 52T on a Vado as Speedmerchant first proved it fits on a Como. ad 2. KMC X10e or Shimano HG601 / HG701 /...

    Indeed. You know what: I used "Specialized" as a searchword at nubuk-bikes looking for your chainring and it didn't show up!

    Time to head for some winter 100milers after the repair to wear the new chainring so your spare ones do not rust. ;)

    As long as you do not wear flared pants. (or any other wider trousers) Not obeying to this rule I went over the bar of my bike as a youth wearing my bright yellow flared pants and they got hooked in the chainring. 🤪 A pity, as I could reuse those flared pants attending a 70s party these days...

    Got it. So you don't need the Deckas 40T chainring. :D The Specialized chain ring bolts are different and won't work with the Deckas chainring. I elaborated on that point here: https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/chain-ring-tooth-selection.33187/post-267155...

    Bad. bike24 calls 18-19 weeks delivery time for the original Specialized 48T chainring, 61€+10€ postage: https://www.bike24.com/p2238251.html Other online shops hadn't stocked Specialized chain rings even before C19-times. How about asking your home Specialized LBS? Deckas chain rings are to...
