How To Use

Mounting Instructions:

  1. Align the mark on the inner circumference of the chainring behind the crank arm.
  2. Use the stock 1X Shimano M8 chainring bolts and torque them to about 7Nm.
  3. If converting from a 2X setup to a 1X with a 30T ring, use 1X bolts from Shimano, as 2X bolts are too short.
