Today, most bikes have a 1x8 1x10 1x11 1x12 single-row drive.
In this video I'll show you how to convert your old 3 row crank into a modern one with a narrow wide sprocket!

i did this conversion several months back and its worked out great. no more messing with a front derailleur and i don't feel that i've lost anything in terms of riding performance. i used the middle ring more than 90% of the time anyways on the 3 ring setup.

53T/39T chainring and 11-32T Casette has the same upper and lower gear ratio as 1x 53T chainring and 11-42T Casette. 1x isn't totally losing out on the important gears if you don't mind the less narrow gear shifts.

I've done the same but with SRAM narrow wide steel rings which last much longer. The difficulty then is getting them to fit a different BCD. It can be achieved to a good finish with an angle grinder and a drill though.

After I got a couple more teeth in the back , I found that I needed the upper and lower ranges less frequently. Eventually I wondered if all the clutter and extra needs of attention was worth it for as often as I needed the outer ranges. I'll still keep the 3x for the road trip bike, but the switch will simplify the commuter.

From what I understand about chainline, the front ring needs to line up with the middle rear cog. So you would use option II and possibly up to 4 mm of spacers and longer chainring screws to line up the chain.

Really has nothing to do with logo you can run it either way. What he is showing is you can run the chainring in both outside the spider or inside the spider. For most the inside position is usually the best for chain line puts it where the middle ring was. No matter which option you choose you can run logo in or out.

Sure. But it depends on if you change the rear cassette. With a modern cassette, you might have equivalent lower gears with the 34 and it might be worth changing. If you want to compare, you can find gear calculators online that will show you what the gear inches are. You just have to input the wheel size and the range for front and rear gears and it’ll show you the numbers for each gear.

The narrow wide single chain ring helps to stop chain drop. The stock chainring with definitely work for street riding but on rough trails and hard riding in lowest and highest cassette gears you may end up with the chain trying to bounce off or “shift off” the stock chain ring.

Mostly the con on most setups is outside the spider will cause a pretty bad chain line when in lower gears. Inside the spider which is middle ring position tends to center it better with cassette this will keep the chain line better weather in low or high gears.

dude, its required to swap chainrings when converting a 3x crankset into 1x because the ones installed in 3x cranksets aren't narrow wide which allows the chain to be transferred to other rings in the crank while a 1x purpose built chain-ring has narrow wide teeth so that your chain wouldn't derail when trailing or going through rough terrain.

Do I have to shorten the chain if I do this and if yes by how much do I have to shorten the chain ?

@@JS-bh3fg it depends if you are willing to change your cassette from a smaller teeth count to a bigger one(ex. from 11-32T converting to 11-40T and higher). If you decide to keep your old cassette(possibly a smaller teeth size),you need to shorten your chain to keep your derailleur in tension. If you change to a bigger cassette size, you don't really need to shorten the chain pretty much. edit: it depends on the size of your cassette and your chainring when choosing the right length of chain. PS: if you have a medium cage derailleur, you either extend it with a goatlink/extender(downside of installing this is not having a smooth feel when shifting up/down) to accommodate a bigger cassette or the jockey rings will collide with the biggest gear of the cassette or...change to a long cage derailleur.

if your chain line allows it I think so narrow wide sprocket in the place of the central table top from the middle or outside depending on the chain line

@@lonerbikes Are you switching just to be fashionable? Unless you’re changing your rear cassette to a modern cassette, you’re going to lack gears on the high and low end. If I were still racing XC, I would never go 1X; just not enough high end gears.
