v1 VBC 2x Outer Chainrings
Price range: $103.00 through $118.00
Discontinued as of April 22, 2025. Remaining stock of v1 VBC 2x outer chainrings will be available on our website until we run out.
The only reason you would be purchasing this ring is if you already have a set of V1 rings and just need to replace the outer ring. Otherwise go to the "v2 VBC 2x Chainring Sets" page and purchase a complete set of v2 rings, they’ll work with whatever set up you already have. v1 VBC 2x chainrings and hardware are not cross compatible with v2 VBC 2x chainrings and hardware.
