  1. Hello all!

    I'm looking at a Shimano SG chainring 'E-42'

    Does anyone know where this would come from?

    Is it compatible with A or B type chainrings?

    I currently have a 53-39 setup on a 9 speed Ultegra. Will the 42 tooth work?

  2. If you have a 53B big chainring, the 'B' means its ramped and pinned to
    assist upshifting from a 39t small ring, so going to a 42 (regardless
    of type) will theoretically not shift as well. I suggest you install
    the 42 you have and see for yourself. It will probably shift just fine.

    Yep, w/o problem as long as the bolt diameter is 130mm. shimano and others
    'claim' the shifting will suffer but in actual practice, it does not.
