Are 10 speed and 11 speed chainrings the same?

Are 10 speed and 11 speed chainrings the same?

The spacing between 11-speed chainring teeth centers is not narrower than on 10-speed chainrings. In some cases, it is even a bit wider on 11-speed. So your system will perform pretty much the same as it does now if you were to replace your 10-speed chainrings with 11-speed ones.

What chainrings are compatible with Campagnolo?

Campagnolo did not change their rings when they went from 8 to 9 speed. All 9 speed chain rings are 100% compatible with 6, 7 or 8 speed, 135 BCD crank sets. Record, Chorus, Athena, Daytona and Centaur 8/9 and 10 speed silver inner rings are identical.

Are 11 and 12 speed chainrings the same?

This is accomplished by making the outer links of the chain thinner. Ultimately, single-speed chains are the strongest because they can be very thick since there’s only one cog at the back. The width of a 12-speed chain is roughly 5.25mm whereas that of an 11-speed chain is 5.62mm. That’s a 0.37mm difference.

Can I use a 10 speed chainring with a 11 speed chain?

You can certainly use a Shimano 10-speed double crank and chainrings with Shimano 11-speed chain, derailleurs, shifters and cassette, however.

Are chainrings speed specific?

Chainrings are sold as having a specific compatibility for only certain speed setups, some overlapping across many.

Are chainrings universal?

Oval chainrings are a crucial part of Rotor’s business, offering its Universal Tooth design components in both round and oval shapes for all sizes and mounts options.

What is the difference between an 11 speed and 12 speed chain?

Chains meant to work with 11-speed drivetrains are 5.5mm wide, and 12-speed chains are the narrowest at 5.3mm at the rivet. Cog spacing is different between 12, 11, 10-speed drivetrains, which means you need to use the right chain for the right number of cogs.

Are 11 speed and 12 speed cassettes the same width?

12 speed cassettes are almost the same width as 11 speed, so range of movement shouldn’t be an issue. The gaps between cogs is the main difference.

Is there a difference between 9 speed and 10 speed chainrings?

There is a tiny difference between 9 and 10 speed chainrings, but perhaps not how you might expect. The teeth (generally) are the same profile, as the difference between the two chains is in the thickness of the outer link plates, not the roller width.

Can I run a 10sp chain on 9sp set up?

You can run a 10sp chain on 9sp set up, its not recommended but yes it will work. Our KMC x10sl-Ti chains are +/- 241g at 112 links and the KMC x9sl-Ti is +/- 265g at 116 links.

Will a 9-speed chain fit on a 10-speed crankset?

There is a lot of confusion about the compatibility of narrow 9- and 10-speed chains with older cranksets. Shimano says you should replace the inner chainring(s) with specially designated 9- or 10-speed ones, but then they’re all too eager to sell you stuff, whether you need it or not.

What is the best link for a 10-speed chain?

Wipperman makes a similar “Connex” link for 10-speed chains and it is re-usable; there is also one from KMC. Shimano’s 9- and 10-speed system is more trouble: you must press in a special link pin, using a special tool, every time you reconnect the chain, and this, too will cause a “clunk.
