installing q rings
Quote | Reply
Hey guys and gals, in trying to install q rings right now and read just about every manual and looked up the issue on Google and forums.

I took off the dura ace 7900 chainrings with a 4mm Allen key, but can't put on the q rings because there isn't anything for the nuts to thread to--the dura ace threading is built into the chainring. I don't think there is a nut on these to put on the other side of the ring... Any ideas? Was the place I ordered from supposed to send some bolts too?

Nobody else is having this problem I've come across so it seems like it'd be obvious.

I think I just found the answer. Since the threading is built into the shimano chainring, I need five nuts to secure the bolts on the rotor rings... Does anyone know what kind I need or where I can get some?

There should be round nuts that the bolts thread into - they are standard on most chainrings. Any shop should have them.
