Nobody has a black ISCG 05 36-40 LG1+ guide in stock! Season's coming up fast!
You e13 boys sure know how to make parts!

Interstingly enough, your link shows that the one he is searching for is not in stock
Planning on putting it on your Sunday? I must say that it looks pretty sweet on mine.
Yeah, that's the plan. I'm going to check go-ride to see if they have any SRS+. I've been debating between the two and had decided on the lg1 for it's weight and easier compatibility with the 09 saint cranks...but the SRS should work and I'd rather have a full bash.
I believe I sniped one of the last lg-1+ in black from QBP yesterday
From what I saw selection was pretty limited.
They are out of the 36-40 but they have the 32-36.
32-36 is where the cool kids are
apparently not, since they are still available. can i get away with a 32-36 on the east coast us? will i miss a 40t, ever?
You must have legs like the incredible hulk if you're using anything bigger than a 36 for downhill. And be an amazing rider.
No just run a 18-40 cassette and then it's fine.
irate2:
nono, i was going to run a 36 with the option to run a larger chainring if i head out west. Is that stupid? Will I be better served with the option of a 32?
on an 11-30 cassette
on an 11-30 cassette
When I lived in Socal the 36 was still what I ran. Granted I only rode Mammoth and N* when I was out there. The only place I ever topped out my drivetrain was on Kamikaze.
id hope so....where do you really need a chainring bigger than 36t round these parts?
I don't know, I'm used to running a 28t on my brooklyn! I have no idea what you "normal" people run.
32-36. 38 maaaybe for a flat smooth pedally track. Anything 40+ is pretty nuts.
ok, 32-36t guide ordered up! I finally get to taste the koolaid!
wait, say what? do i need the larger guide or something?
I used to run a 40t and then a 38t and now I've got a 36t..
I honestly don't notice the difference between the three unless it's a super long flat out course and then I miss my 40t.
stumpjump- I don't get it?

I ride a 40T on east coast with a 12-25 cassete. Dont think its absolutely necessary but i dont like spinning alot so i think alot of it comes down to preference, however i do know i wont ever run out of gears. 
My guess is Stumpy is saying don't go bigger then a 36 on a Sunday cause of the low bb which would bottom out more often if you run a 40.
I got the next-to-last SRS+, or so I hope...
Thats exactly what I am saying. I say this having ruined one of my guides and bearly saving my ring.
Edit:
No thtas not what I am saying. If I am correct the 36-40t would fit a little larger (i.e more room from the end of the chainring teeth to the outermost part of the taco) so that if you do take a large impact at some point and yo stuff breaks, you will only have to replace a backplate or taco, and not your chainring too.
If I am wrong on that...well I am stupid...
