How to mount 130/5 Oval Chainring:
First, you need to remove your crank from your bike. Once removed, unscrew the 5 bolts that hold two chainrings together. Remove both original rings. Locate the new oval inner chainring with the triangular timing indicator positioned behind crank arm. The bolt holes on the small chainring are recessed – so the nut heads will sit flush with the surface of the chainring – these recesses should face you when mounting the bolts. Absolute Black outer chainrings have also triangular timing indicator – position the outer ring to line up that indicator with the crank arm. If you are only switching the inner chainring to oval – use the original bolts that came with your crank. If you are switching to a pair of oval rings, you will need a set of regular ‘double’ (or Long) chainring bolts. Tighten all five bolts with force of about 5-7Nm. Mount your crank back to the bike. You may also need to adjust the front derailleur upwards by 2-3mm.
