Replacing a chainset.

[Gillstay]

A chum has asked me to replace the worn out chainset on his Boardman adv 8.9.

The chainwheels are 120-90 32-48 FSA and its 10 speed 11-36 on the rear, but I am having trouble find the parts.

Anyone been here before me with any advice please.

I guess you are just looking for the chainrings and not the whole chainset which on SJS is £125 ( I think).

SJS only have the outer and it's out of stock.
eBay has what you need if it's the 34/50 and 110 BCD. Sorry but wouldn't let me copy link.

Yes, correct.

But if that's the only way to get there, then we will have to do that. Thanks.

Are you sure it's worn? It's just that chainrings have a much longer life than chains and cassettes and can last for years. And if its a double, unlikely that both have worn out together, so maybe just one needs replacing.

Or is it something other than worn teeth? A photo might help.

Good luck

Spa Cycles is always my first port of call for chainrings, though they don't stock much in the way of rings specific to heavily-styled cranksets.

Yes its worn out. The smaller chainring was replaced a while ago and it did have a new chain, but its all gone now and not helped by endless use of WD40 as a lubricant and then not cleaning off the collected grit and soil. The good luck may well be needed. Thanks.
