4. Setup jeung Instalasi
This chainring is designed for 9-speed drivetrains and features a 104mm Bolt Circle Diameter (BCD) with a 4-bolt pattern. It is compatible with SHIMANO Deore M590, M750, M760, and M770 series cranksets.
4.1 Pakakas diperlukeun
- Hex wrench (typically 5mm or 6mm, depending on chainring bolts)
