Jay.................And those in need, if you can snag it for $ 74.- then get it! I won't mention names but they are currently listed with other dealers for about $ 135.-. We are selling them for around $ 100.-...........But other good SR copies can be had for a lot less.

Reason for the high prices, factor in high wear item. Most users are not touching that big ring. Most bikes being offered then this was standard gear, so to say when a period correct restoration is going on. Of course the ring to want would be a 42t.

Anyway!...................We're trying to secure a small pile of 42t NR and SR rings, it's an all or nothing deal..............Finding the time to acquier these rings is holding us back as like many other deals that we would like to close.............Last count about 50 rings of each. Now if we can only find that stash of hoods.

$ 74.- ring...........................Go get it!
