Will any chainring fit any crank?
Are they interchangeable? Largely speaking, yes. As long as your attempting to replace them with a chainring(s) designed to work with your chainset. Your cranks will have a specific bolt layout or fitment spec so you can’t just fit a BMX chainring to your triathlon bike.
Will an 11 speed crank work with a 9 speed chain?
9 and 11 speed chains will have the same internal width and different external width (9 speed being thicker), so they will both fit snugly on 9 or 11 speed chainrings but shifting between chainrings may be problematic as spacing between two 9 speed chainrings will be optimised for a 9 speed chain.
Can you use a 10 speed crankset with 9 speed?
A nine speed crank set will work with a 10 speed drive train. However it’s not all plain sailing. You can have trouble using a 10 speed FD with a 9 speed crank set. It doesn’t shift as far out as the 9 speed so you may experience sloppy changes to the outer ring and chain rub against the FD in some gears.
Are Shimano 9 and 10 speed chainrings interchangeable?
Condensed answer: In most cases, a 10-speed chain will operate just fine with a 9-speed cassette because it’s slim enough to move up and down the rear cogs without rubbing or skipping.
Can I use a 12 speed crankset with 9 speed cassette?
Using an 11 or 12 speed chain on a 9 speed cassette will present problems with smooth shifting and the big danger would be risk of severe chain jam should the thinner profile chain of 11 or 12 speeds get stuck between cogs of a 9 speed cassette which are spaced wider than an 11 or 12 speed cassette’s cogs.
Will a 10 speed chain work on a 8 speed cassette?
A 10 speed chain should work on an 8-speed drivetrain. if you want 10 speeds, you will need a 10 speed-specific chain, cassette, derailleur and shifter (and a new cable while you’re at it).
Can I use a 10 speed chainring with a 9 speed cassette?
New Chainrings, Old Chains And even if you were to experience the problem described, just opt for a 10 spd chain. It’ll work fine with your 9 spd cassette.
Will a 9 speed cassette fit on a 10 speed hub?
Condensed Answer: A 9-speed Shimano or SRAM MTB cassette can be installed on a 10-speed Shimano or SRAM MTB hub right away. A 9-speed cassette is wider than a 10-speed road cassette and is therefore too big for 10-speed specific Shimano road hubs.
Are 9 and 10 speed chains the same?
The main difference between a 9 speed chain and a 10 speed chain is that the 10 speed chain is thinner in width, because of the 10 speed cassette, which in turn means the chain is lighter.
Are 9 and 10 speed cassettes the same width?
they are the same width. The distance between the 9 speed gears is ever so slightly wider than on a 10 speed cassette (hence why 10 speed chains need thinner side plates than 9 speed ones.
Will a 9 speed chain fit on 10 speed crankshaft?
Anybody tried it and had issues with 9 speed chain on 10 speed cranks? the 9 speed chain will be fine. if you running a 9 speed front mech thatll cause issues. huh? Cage width and pull ratio are ‘speed’ specific.
Can I run a 10 speed chain on a 9 speed cassette?
I run 9 and 10 speed chains through a 10spd front mech on a 10spd slx chainset. Either chain,not a problem! I run 9spd xtr shifters,9spd xtr rear mech and a 9 speed cassette and I’ve had no problems with either type of chain.
Will a 10 SPD XT chain work with a 9spd XT?
I have a 10 Spd XT chainset working with a 9spd XT/SLX set up, including front mech. It works fine for me. It is set up as a double with the big ring removed if that makes any difference regarding the high low settings and indexing.
Can I run a Dura-Ace chainset on 10sp?
Recipe: shave legs sparingly, rub in embrocation and drizzle with freshly squeezed baby oil. I have been running a 9sp Dura-ace chainset on 10sp with no problem.
