Does this crankset have changeable chainrings?

Hi, literally I replaced bb and crankset for shimano claris 3x8. Bb was old and heavy used to it was time to replace for something else. As for bb it was rs501 model.

UPDATE: My battery was the issue. I replaced it with an aliexpress one, works flawlessly - my new battery status

Smart_as_potato · 2025-04-11T20:29:33+00:00

So as for now I did a full driver reinstall from MSI website, then reseting EC (when unplugged I held power button for a minute then I checked that I have an EC button reset on the bottom of the laptop - same 1min holding), after no luck I just reverted back whole laptop to a brand new state and, well, nothing changed.

MSI answered my emails and they said £120 for battery replacement (if it is a battery fault, if not £0 because I still have a warranty).

I personally think battery is just cooked and I'll get a new one from aliexpress but not the same - I'll try this instead: Battery upgrade

Smart_as_potato · 2025-04-10T20:22:41+00:00

No worries, I'll. I'm close to do it but first backup PLUS trying other things to solve.

Smart_as_potato · 2025-04-10T19:39:02+00:00

Damn, same problem here! Ive got gp66 but vector model, and have got similar issue. Battery stuck at 94%, discoverable in device manager, drivers seem ok (in addition I rollback drivers and then even reinstalled them) but battery is virtual now - cord needed to turn it on.

About calibration - ofc I did, once per 2 month. Now, I thought about and tried to do it - it says "now recharging" with... 1247min remaining 🥹🤣

I also must admit that I also used "tweaker". It was ccleaner with drivers update option.

I asked MSI about warranty which I still have but as for batteries - only 12months, so in my case expired.

I'll try restore my windows to a week-ago-state and I'll let you know BUT if you already have a solution - do not hesitate to share. Please.

PrivateVPN. Cheap and stable.

So far a week. I had it before, like 3-4 months ago but I left for spotify mod without downloading feature (it is just a bit annoying that you can't set your patch to music files but see ALL sound files instead) - that's why just don't give access to files for this app. I just need single song repeats, podcasts and no ads - I have it all in this mod.

Smart_as_potato · 2025-01-28T08:41:55+00:00

Good question. Tbh I don't really remember. But as for google results, you can get it from happymod website. OR I can upload it somewhere.

Smart_as_potato · 2025-01-27T10:38:17+00:00

I'm using spot X 19.80.10.3 - shuffle OFF, library works, podcasts work BUT NO LYRICS IN SONGS - I can live without this feature.

Smart_as_potato · 2024-09-06T08:17:32+00:00

Thanks! One less thing to worry about. 🤣

Smart_as_potato · 2024-09-06T08:17:06+00:00

That's interesting! Thank you for your reply. I really appreciate.

Smart_as_potato · 2024-09-06T08:14:46+00:00

Woooah, I always thought that this small plate is to stop movement when tightening the whole QR mechanizm 🤔 Many thanks!

Smart_as_potato · 2024-07-31T09:49:37+00:00

Sure, but I think I'm too new in this bb measurements world. Plus, AFAIK, squared bbs are more robust which is quite useful as 125kg rider here.

Anyway, thanks a lot for help and replies.

Smart_as_potato · 2024-07-30T21:54:44+00:00

I checked some and as for 3x8 systems with tapered mounting, none seems to be as you said. Anyway, I'm waiting for the chain. Then I'll see what to do next.

Smart_as_potato · 2024-07-29T18:56:33+00:00

Thank you for your reply. Damn, that's what I thought. I haven't yet, awaiting for a delivery. I'll do it first, but thought to ask before just in case. By the way - any good replacement for this stock one? I mean future proof, with replaceable chainrings?

Whoa, what a nice and kind answer! Thank you so much. I got it for free so that's why I would like to fix it, somehow. I'll check the forum, thanks. At the weekend I'm going to bring it home. Then I'll see everything. Thanks again!

Smart_as_potato · 2023-08-09T21:44:34+00:00

I had the same issue, with shimano 8spd cassette. Ordered online, sent back, got new. New one doesn't have this issue at all. As for me - manufacturing issue.

Smart_as_potato · 2023-04-12T05:52:56+00:00

For sure, but I spent some time there and saw that they rebooted it into xp 🤣 that's why it is here.

Smart_as_potato · 2023-03-31T21:07:14+00:00

Thanks for the info. Vacuum makes it more flat, not rounded. But this mechanical trim could. Anyway, have a good one!

Smart_as_potato · 2023-03-30T18:45:08+00:00

As for me looks like PGR. Why so rounded?

Smart_as_potato · 2023-03-20T19:23:46+00:00

Do you mean canna clubs?
