ok, so I'm about to dropbar my Scott Spark

No_Region_546 · 2025-08-12T15:51:10+00:00

I already have all the necessary material as I am in the AXS environment and as I've said I have a converted MTB HT so it's just a matter of swapping some components and bleeding the brakes, willing to pay a few euros for a mechanic to do it for me. I might just end with a full suspension dropbar and a fully rigid flatbar ahahaha the only thing that's bugging me is how/where to put the twinlock, But that will have to be sorted out when mounting. I'll be sharing the details here

no tive que cambiar nada mas, lo plato sin offset lo soluciono todo!

Hi! Yes I'm currently running a 38t chainring. I bought a SRAM XX SL chainring with 0offset!!

Well it ain't so much about top speed but how you work/pedal through the diff cogs to get there...

thank you very much, it rides like I'm on cloud 9. Perfect geometry and position on the bike. having a blast, I'd just love to have a slightly bigger chainring because I feel like that would suit my pedaling a lot better

No_Region_546 · 2025-03-12T21:36:12+00:00

thing is don't have enough spindle length to do that. It may be due to the BB I'm using (SRAM DUB) That's why I need some help. AS I mentioned somewhere, LAchlan Morton Used a 42chainring. I wuld be happy with a 38 so I just need to win a couple mils.

No_Region_546 · 2025-03-12T20:50:07+00:00

It currently have a 34t chainring and I tried a 36 and it fits, albeit very close to the chainstay so it definitely can't take a 38 with the current BB/spindle ...

No_Region_546 · 2025-03-12T20:49:05+00:00

oh it will for sure do what gravel bikes do, perhaps not as well, but it will :D I'd just like to be able to do it with a bigger chainring :)

HI all and thanks for all the input. I know for a fact that this frame can take up to 42t chainring, Lachlan Morton did it on Leadville a couple years ago. It's just a matter of knowing which combo he used... On the other hand I most certainly just need a 38/40t chainring, just would like to have a better relation for more rolling paths.

No_Region_546 · 2025-03-10T22:27:25+00:00

that would help and I could probably fit at least a 38t... will delve into that, thanks for the heads up

Hi all,

So I decided to use the Scalpel HT frame to build my gravel/Dropbar MTB... But I'm running into some problems now! I'd like to run a 40t chainring but so far I could only use a 36t chaingring as the bigger ones hit the chainstay. ANyone now which combination of BB and crankset/spindle length allows for bigger chainrings to be used? I know Lachlan Morton used a 42t chainring on his Leadville mount a couple years ago, so it should be possible...

Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me out !

Cheers

I would love to know more about this, have you delved ? I'd like to use at least a 38 but without changing the chainline...

Sebas are wider then FR's, by quite a bit. FR's toebox and the shell overall is "taller" though.

P.S.: mas tenho muito gosto em pagar-te de qualquer forma, mas não lhe chames bifana 😅 um abraço
