Chain line question

G'day
Currently have a 3x crankset that I'm thinking of ditching for a second hand 1x Crank set.

Do I need to make sure that the centre of the 1x is running the same line as the middle ring on the 3x ? Is it that critical.
Cassette is a 7 speed if I remember correctly....


Is there a chain line chart somewhere on the net that I can access?


Thanks very much

Any reason you can't just keep the 3x crank and use that in the middle ring position? It'll save you buying a new crank set.
I keep bending the 22(inner most) and 32(middle ring)...

unless you are never going uphill 1x7 would be no good.
1x9 say 30 or 32 narrow wide X 11-40 isnt bad if you are strong.

Found a 1x11 Box one component groupset.

Might be worth upgrading to it.

I'm quickly learning that there's A LOT to learn about MTB. So many options
