Can I use this kit for a double or triple chainring setup?

How do I clean the chainring bolts?
Wipe them with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher grime, use a slightly damp cloth and ensure they are dried thoroughly afterwards. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Bolts do not seem to fit or thread correctly.
Verify that you are using a 5-arm application and that the chainring and crank spider alignment is correct. Ensure no debris is present in the threads.
Chainline appears incorrect after installation.
Confirm the spacer is installed correctly between the chainring and crank spider. Check if the chainring itself has an offset designed for a specific chainline.
Bolts loosen over time.
Ensure bolts were tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications. Re-tighten if necessary. Consider using a thread-locking compound if loosening persists, though this is generally not recommended for chainring bolts without specific guidance.
