I am in search of an 8 bolt mount, 5 bolt 130 BCD spider for a non-AXS crankset. I saw one on ebay but it's 110 BCD. A direct mount chainring would also work but would have to be at least 46t (preferably 48), wolftooth only makes a 40 and a 44.
I saw this picture in the document below (page 7 on the right) but I haven't been able to find anything from SRAM.

Alternatively, would I be able to put an 8 bolt AXS spider onto an 8 bolt non AXS crankset and run it with an 11 speed chain?

Thanks!

Yes, it fits, assuming you're talking about this one, for example: https://r2-bike.com/SRAM-Quarq-Power-Me ... BCD-130-mm

However, the mounting plane is different by 1..2 mm on the 8 bolt AXS Dub vs old 8 Bolt Red BB30(386) cranks, which might or might not cause front shifting problems depending on frame and BB you have.
Minimum bike categories required in the stable:
Aero bike | GC bike | GC rim bike | Climbing bike | Climbing rim bike | Classics bike | Gravel bike | TT bike | Indoors bike

Yes I know that one fits, it's meant to go on a non AXS crankset. I was talking about a standard spider though, not a power meter one. The crankarm sits into a concave part of the spider and I am pretty sure they have a slightly different profiles, I just don't know if it's to the point where it would interfere. I did find that Garbruk, and alugear both make DM chainrings bigger than 44, so that might work.

I've got two of the 110 bcd, 8 bolt, non-AXS ones if you want one. Sorry, no 130 bcd (I got rid of my last one recently unfortunately). I'm in Australia. Message me if you get desperate and want one.
