Anyone know which brand have make a lightweight narrow wide chainring for 110bcd/42T?

I only find a SRAM Force1 42T/75g, has other lightweight than this?

Garbaruk 110bcd/42t round ring 70gr
Absolute Black 81gr
Wolftooth 81gr
Raceface 76gr
there are so many to choose from! If you have a removable spider, i suggest going with a direct mount chainring for best weight savings.

What comes to mind is the Eason EC90 SL setup with the directmount chainring as the other options aside from Force 1 you aren't really saving much.

EC90 SL with 42T chainring only 450g, it’s really light than Force1 :thumbup:

Not sure if you're still looking or not. But check out RaceFace. That's what I'm using on my roadie and it's claimed at about 50-57g. I've got a 40T 130BCD
Will be removing it to put on my new Crankset in a couple days so at that time I can weigh it properly.
Cervelo Caledonia 5 - 6.9kg
Sekine Custom SS - 8.6kg

Has anyone ordered the Garbaruk 110bcd/42t round ring before. I'm really thinking of getting one but heard some conflicting reports regarding shipping. Some complained it took forever to get their purchase. Or is there anyone that resells them?

Received my 42T Garbaruk ring - direct mount. Pretty happy with the weight of the ring and complete crank.
