TA Specialite Zephyr chainring

The outer TA Zephyr chainrings with a 110mm bolt circle are compatible with road bike compact cranksets. These chainrings have a symmetrical 5-hole/arm mounting and are not compatible with newer asymmetrical crank mountings

Compatible with 8-, 9- and 10-speed MTB and road bike cranksets:

The standard chainrings are designed for 9-speed chains, but can also be used without any problems with 8- and 10-speed chains and cranksets. On the crankset, the spacing between the chainrings is determined by the crank arms. Therefore, it does not matter whether you use 8-speed, 9-speed or 10-speed chainrings.

Please note that the gap between the individual chainrings should not exceed 12 teeth. Otherwise, you will have to accept a reduction in shifting performance. For chainring setups with the largest chainring from 46 teeth upwards, please use Shimano XT front derailleurs with a compatible cage. Road bike front derailleurs generally shift up to 55 teeth without any problems.

To determine the bolt circle diameter, please measure the distance between two adjacent holes (centre-to-centre) and multiply this value by 1.7. This will give you the bolt circle diameter.
