Help me find a singlespeed chainring: 42 teeth, 130mm BCD (five bolts), for 3/32 chain

[MossCommuter]

Having trouble finding a replacement chainring:

• Singlespeed
• 42 teeth
• 130mm BCD (five bolts)
• 3/32 chain

Replacing now defunct model: Driveline TK-13 42T 3/32in

There might be somewhere you know of that I have not looked yet; any help appreciated.

Have you tried Spa Cycles? They're usually good for that sort of thing.

I hadn't but I am now!

One thing, they don't give the chain width in inches but in 'speeds', e.g. "9 / 10 speed"

What is a 3/32 chain in terms of number of sprockets?

Thanks!

That's exactly the correct spec'. Well found!

It looks very cheap, any thoughts on quality?

Also, daft question... can the crank be removed on that one so that I can use mine? I only want the chainring

Anything from 6 to 11...

AIUI, 3/32" is the internal width of the chain, so I think that means any chainring for a double or triple should be compatible with any 3/32" chain when used in a singlespeed set-up.

Probably worth asking Spa if you're unsure if the particular model you're interested in will be suitable - they're pretty clued up.

I like White Industries ENO 16t freewheels and they're only compatible with 3/32 chains

Could also try this if you're it's for a single speed.

Edit: OFC this may be better still.

I filtered on 42t and found a nice looking Thorn.

The product description says it's 39t

The chainring in the photo is 44t



(I'll drop them a line)

A Dura-Ace 11-speed chain is 3/32" so would be compatible with your freewheel - albeit a pointlessly expensive option.

OK - thanks to everyone for your time in replying especially @simon_adams_uk because I plumped for VeloSolo; the VeloSolo CNC Road and Track Chainring Anodised in black (and bookmarked the site!)
