What a difference a gram makes

Just replaced my big ring. Sugino Supershifter ring. The epitome of budget weight weenie parts.

Here is a comparison of the old ring to the new ring. The weight difference between the two rings is 1 gram.



I should never have let the big ring get this bad, but as is typical I rode it until it started to skip. Replacing things before they get this worn out is a better way of avoiding serious issues, such as crashes caused from putting all your weight into a the big ring and having it slip on you.
