52 replacement chainring - ultegra 5703
« on: 25 June, 2023, 05:06:15 pm »
Anyone know if these are now pure unobtainium?  Replacing the chain ont recumbent today I noticed that the 52T ring on the 52-39-30 Ultegra (6703) was getting a bit on the worn side. 

My Google-Fu is failing to find anything available.

I have found this https://www.bike-components.de/en/Shimano/Ultegra-FC-6750-FC-6750-G-10-speed-Chainring-p31794/?o=149200259-glossy-grey-50-tooth , 5-bolt 130BCD, 10sp 50T for a 50-34.  Would this work, or chainline all wrong?

I would be tempted to talk to Spa and ask them if they have a TA or Stronglight ring that will fit

Its the aesthetics as well, the ultegra triple has a particular "aero" type profile, as you say, worth checking though

I meant 6703 - I've resigned myself to possible e-bay interactions, not looking forward to it

only thing is you have this profile on the ultegra, so a flat chainring will look very odd, but so be it if that's the only way.

Why is it at least one bike needs something doing to it all the time.
