FAQs

Is this chainring compatible with 11-speed Campagnolo systems?

No, the Miche Supertype Ingranaggio is specifically designed for 9 and 10-speed Campagnolo drivetrains. Using it with an 11-speed system may lead to poor shifting performance and premature wear.

What does BCD stand for and why is 135mm important?

BCD stands for Bolt Circle Diameter, which is the diameter of the circle formed by the bolt holes on your crankset's spider. 135mm is a common size for many road bike cranksets, but it's crucial to verify your crankset's BCD before purchasing.

Can I mix this chainring with Shimano or SRAM components?

While the chainring itself might physically mount, it is optimized for Campagnolo chainrings and shifting. Mixing components from different brands, especially between chainrings and chains/cassettes, can lead to suboptimal shifting performance and increased drivetrain wear.

How do I choose the right tooth size (39T, 46T, 52T, 53T)?

The tooth size determines your gear ratio. Smaller sizes (e.g., 39T) provide easier pedaling for climbing hills, while larger sizes (e.g., 52T, 53T) offer higher top-end speed for flat terrain and descents. Consider your typical riding terrain and fitness level when choosing.

What is Ergal 7075 alloy?

Ergal 7075 is a high-strength aluminum alloy often used in aerospace and performance cycling components due to its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and durability. Heat treatment and anodizing further enhance its resistance to wear and corrosion.

How often should I clean my chainring?

It's recommended to clean your chainring and the entire drivetrain regularly, ideally after every few rides or more frequently if riding in wet or muddy conditions, to maintain optimal performance and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Chain skipping during shifts

Check derailleur adjustment, cable tension, and chain wear. Ensure the chainring is securely fastened and not bent. Verify compatibility with your chain and cassette.

Noisy drivetrain

Clean the chainring and entire drivetrain thoroughly. Ensure proper chain lubrication. Check for worn chainrings, cassette, or chain.

Chainring bolts are loose

Tighten chainring bolts to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification. If bolts strip or won't tighten, they may need replacement.

Compatibility issues with crankset

Confirm the crankset has a 135mm BCD. If not, this chainring will not fit. Ensure the crank arms themselves are compatible with external chainrings.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure your bicycle is equipped with a Campagnolo 9 or 10-speed compatible crankset and bottom bracket.
  2. Verify that your crankset uses a 135mm BCD (Bolt Circle Diameter).
  3. Mount the chainring to your crank spider using appropriate chainring bolts. Ensure even tightening to prevent warping.
  4. Install a compatible 9 or 10-speed chain. Adjust its length as needed.
  5. Properly align the derailleur and adjust shifting limits for optimal performance.

Compatibility:

  • Drivetrain: Campagnolo 9-speed and 10-speed systems.
  • Crankset: Must have a 135mm BCD.
  • Chain: 9-speed or 10-speed chains.

Care:

  • Regularly clean the chainring with a degreaser and a soft brush to remove dirt and grime.
  • Wipe dry after cleaning and apply chain lubricant.
  • Inspect for wear or damage periodically. Replace if teeth become significantly worn or hooked.
  • Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners that could damage the anodized finish.
