Does anyone know if there are any manufacturers of narrow/wide chainrings with Campagnolo specific bolt patterns? I have a Campy crank I'd like to use for a CX build, but so far I haven't been able to find any narrow/wide rings for the Campy 110 BCD. I've been told you can file the 5th bolt hole to fit the different BCD, but that sounds a bit janky to me.

I was unaware of the rotor option, I was unable to find anything to suit the 135mm campag bcd. It's hard enough getting hold of a five bolt ring.
I did buy a black race face one in 130 and was planning on enlarging the outer edge of each bolt hole, using another campag ring as a template but haven't had time yet. Another WW member did that and it seems ok.

Well since I'm trying to use the 110 BCD, theoretically I'd only have to modify one of the bolt holes. Maybe it's time to finally get a dremel.

ITTY: It's super easy. Should take you about 35 seconds :)

You can do it with a simple round file as well, but that will take a bit longer.
