Mart Date Reviewed: October 21, 2012 Strengths: Works great on a 9 speed ssytem Weaknesses: Very poor shifting on 10 speed dynasys system. "Hang" between the outer and mid chain ring and had very often chainsuck on the 10 speed system. Contacted Blackspire but they wouldn't listen. Came with facts that the teeth's of original 10 speed chain rings are smaller but didn't listen to that. Bottom Line:

from Haverhill, MA, USA Date Reviewed: July 12, 2011 Strengths: The Blackspire Super Pro offered the correct bolt circle to fit my Raceface Deus crank set 104/64 in 32/22 teeth Weaknesses: Poor shifting quality. The chain drops off the middle ring to the granny ring with a clunck when shifted. Adjustment could not smooth it out. Also you must make approximately a 120 degree rotation before the chain moves down. To much for my liking. Up shifts to the middle ring clatter. This is definately not on par with Raceface rings. The base material for the granny ring is thicker than a Raceface ring though the counter bores for the ring bolts are similiar in depth. The result is that the granny chainring bolts are more inboard and interfere with the lower pivot bolt on my Intense 6.6. This is really bad!!!

from usa Date Reviewed: May 4, 2004 Strengths: i honestly cantremember howmuch i paid 4 these, they were priced in line with raceface. They are great shifting and last a real long time. After one year they still have alot of life left to them and are shifting consistantly Weaknesses: i cant think of any...the small ring was machined for an 8 speed drivetrain, i ofcourse got horrible chainsuck,after calling them they replaced it immediatly, and were apologetic for the mistake, those polite Canadians...such a nice change from the arrogant cali attitudes i get so tired of.
