Hey, I am just rounding up to build my new DOC when it finally gets here, the last part needed is cranks and guide...I am going to order a e.13 STS today, but my question is its compatibility with the cranks. Currently I have the 5 bolt spider profile mountain bike cranks....while they are great cranks i might be switching to deity in the near future...I guess my question is, that if i buy the sts in one bolt patter, and in the future i want to change cranks the most i will have to buy is a new supercharger bashring with the correct bolt patter?!? am i right, thanks everyone i really want to get this thing ordered so let the responses fly

Correct.

did evil/e13 say they were going to be phasing out 5 bolt patterns, or was that my e-magination? if someone can confirm that, and i were you, i'd go ahead and get a 4 bolt spider and ring now and order the 4/104 STS.

e13 guys, why don't the chainwheels come in a 4-bolt pattern?

anywho, if you switch to Deity cranks, you can still use the spider you have with your Profiles.

There was a thread somewhere about E-13 not making the 5x94mm bolt pattern any more.

We have stopped making the 5-94 bolt pattern bashguards. our Crownwheels currently use the 5-110 BCD pattern for use with our bashguards. If you go with a 3 piece crankset be sure to use our Crownwheel to get proper wearplate/bashguard spacing. A lot of times the stock spiders are too thick in combination with their rings.
