Is this chainring compatible with non-Shimano e-bike motors?

No, this chainring is specifically designed for Shimano STEPS e-bike drivetrain systems.

Can I use this on a 52 mm chain line bike?

No, this component is strictly designed for a 55 mm chain line and will cause shifting or alignment issues if used on other setups.

Does this package include the fixing nut?

No, the fixing lock nut is not included with the chainring.

What material is the chainring made of?

The teeth are constructed from durable steel for maximum longevity.

How many teeth does this chainring have?

This specific model features 34 teeth.

Is a chain guard compatible with this ring?

This ring does not include a chain guard, and users should verify that their specific crank setup allows for guard installation if needed.

Troubleshooting

Increased chain noise during pedaling

Check chain lubrication and inspect for any bent teeth on the chainring.

Chain drops frequently on technical terrain

Verify the chain line is indeed 55 mm and ensure the chain is the correct width and length for the STEPS system.

Difficulty installing the ring

Ensure you are using the correct lockring tool and that the splines are aligned perfectly before tightening.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent chain retention on rough terrain
  • High-durability steel teeth construction
  • Reduced drivetrain noise compared to standard rings
  • Improved power efficiency through reduced drag

Cons

  • Compatible only with 55 mm chain lines
  • Chain guard not included

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the SM-CRE80-B requires a compatible e-bike crankset supporting a 55 mm chain line. Before beginning, ensure the motor is powered down and the bicycle is securely mounted in a repair stand. You will need the appropriate lockring tool to tighten the fixing nut to manufacturer specifications. Because this chainring does not include a bash guard, ensure your frame or setup provides adequate clearance if you frequently ride over large obstacles. Routine maintenance involves cleaning the teeth with a degreaser after muddy rides and applying a high-quality chain lubricant to prevent premature wear on both the ring and the chain.
