By Irene Melrose

23 Apr 2020

Will this work with the same BB on at present on a 1987 Dawes Super Galaxy and with a 13-34T cassette.

SJS Customer Service: · Answer

Hi, we don't know what BB is fitted to your 1987 Dawes Super Galaxy so can't confirm compatibility. The cassette will be fine. Thanks 29/04/2020

Question 6

9 speed

By Steve

09 Apr 2020

I have the 9 speed version of this which doesn’t have removable chainrings would this chainset work with a 9 speed setup?

SJS Customer Service: · Answer

It is not recommended, if you have index front shifting the spacing will be bigger plus the narrower 9s chain MAY skid over the top of the teeth RT 100420

By Stephen Leader

Question 8

Hi is this compatable as a replacement for a M171 chainset thanks Russ

By Russ

SJS Customer Service: · Answer

The M171 uses a 122.5 mm b/b this chainset seems to need 123mm (according to Shimano PDF) but this doesn't appear to exist, the answer is then: yes, probably! sorry. RT070619

Question 9

Compatible with previous 7spd Shimano Front Chainwheel ?

By Mike

30 Apr 2019

I purchased this a couple of days ago and it arrived today (30/04) - thank you, great service as always ! The problem I have is that the mounting surface of the driveside crank is recessed (approx level with middle ring). However, on my old Chainwheel, the mounting surface to tighten down onto the BB is just above the small ring. This is similar on all my older GT MTB's. How do I overcome this problem ? When researching the part prior to ordering, there was no mention of this potention issue either on Shimano's or SJS's tech info. Thanks, Mike

SJS Customer Service: · Answer

From Shimano's tech doc, this chainset needs a 123mm b/b, which is odd because the nearest shimano length is 122.5mm(!), in 68mm shell that's our part # 38569L1225 and in 73mm 26973S122

Question 10

Are the chainrings removable and can this be used with a single ring?

By So-crates73

18 Feb 2019

SJS Customer Service: · Answer

Yes these rings are removable, so yes you could run this single ring.

Question 11

Octalink version?

By D Fox

25 Sep 2018

Any chance you will ever stock the Shimano Acera FC-M361 7/8 Speed Triple Chainset - Black - 42/32/22T as an Octalink version?

SJS Customer Service: · Answer

Hi, the Shimano Acera FC-M361 in Cctalink is not available from the UK Shimano importer so we will not be stocking it. Thanks

Question 12

Bottom Bracket Size

By D Fox

24 Sep 2018

Do I need a different size bottom bracket axle length when changing from octalink to square taper? The original octalink BB size is 68x118 to give a chainline of 50mm.

SJS Customer Service: · Answer

For 50mm chainline you will need a 122mm axle.

Thanks
