Put on a 36t narrow wide chain ring today. Just wanted to de-clutter. It is the same count as my OEM middle ring, so it feels identical. Was still able to shift to granny. Looking forward to putting more miles on her this weekend.

I’ve been considering doing the same, but nervous about the minimum range of gears. Looks good!
Looks so good! And I bet it feels nice to have one less mechanical component to have to maintain. I’m planning to do the same to mine but with a chainring between my OEM middle and smallest. I have some nice little trails between work and home and want to have a proper granny gear for them.
I have 11-28 7 speed meant for an ebike. Plenty of range for the money
I have a 14-28 freewheel and a 28-38-48 triple chainring, and about 90% of the time, I just use the middle ring. But I need that 1:1 ratio (28:28) for a few long, steep hills in my area. The high range (48:14) is nice when I have a strong tailwind.
Looks good.
