Hi anybody...I think I may have made a mistake. I have an "old" Claud B mountain bike, and I have decided to replace some bits to give it a new lease of life. I have a new chain and 7 speed cassette, bit am having trouble sourcing a new chain set.
The larger ring (of 3) is a 38 tooth cog...and I can't find one anywhere?
I thought I would like to fit a larger 42 tooth cog, but the front gear change is fixed to the crank? ..ie so I can't adjust it / raised it any higher.
Other option is to fit the larger ring and a new front gear change unit..(top pull), but the down tube is 35mm?
Can anybody suggest a solution / best option. I do not want to spend too much, as I would rather buy a new bike.
Any help welcome,
Stu
