Where did you purchase from?Just bought a set of new Raceface Aeffect R cranks for a decent price, just need a new Shimano bottom bracket and 30T chainring!
If you aren't worried about weight RF make a much longer lasting steel chainring to suit these...FB Marketplace - came off a brand new Merida ONE-SIXTY 700 and he sold them to me without the chainring as it was a 32T and I was after a 30T.
I'm now looking for a 30T aluminium cinch chainring.
Exactly, and the reason I was looking at these cranks in the first place...Is weight the only disadvantage to these? It's only 80 odd grams, hardly seems an issue!
I should have one, I’ll check tonightFB Marketplace - came off a brand new Merida ONE-SIXTY 700 and he sold them to me without the chainring as it was a 32T and I was after a 30T.

"Hambos Broom"?This thread needs a new title.
Hambo's box? Seems every time he looks at it he is filled with more questions and second guessing."Hambos Broom"?
Surely there isn't that much left of the original bike?
Your not trying hard enough.Hardly the bike of Theseus is it, here's loads left of the original bike!
Frame, fork, stem, headset, brakes, drivetrain, wheels..
Amateur.Your not trying hard enough.
Only parts that are still original on mine are the handlebars, cranks, brake lines (not levers or calipers), seat post, 60% of the fork and 75% of the Di2 hardware.
My specialized got to the point where just the shock and frame were stockAmateur.
Only cranks and chainring, over here, and the chainring needs to be upsized.
