Have you ever wondered what is the largest size chainring that will fit on your track bike?
We get asked this question a lot. The short answer is that the only way to tell is to test it out. Even two identical frames may allow for different sizes of chainrings due to the tolerance stack between components.
Read more about optimising your chainline here
We developed this handy tool to do just that. Each tooth on the gauge represents a different size chainring from 49 to 70 teeth.
Note: This is a digital download for 3D Printing only.
How to measure:
- Bolt the gauge onto your crank
- Rotate the crank to observe tooth clearances with the frames chain stay
- Identify the optimum size chainring for your setup.
- Chainring or bottom bracket spacers may be used to offset the chainline to increase the chainring clearance.
Specifications:
- 144 BCD
- 49 to 70 teeth
- Note: this is a sizing tool only, it is not designed to interface with a chain

It was just thought, I'm sure someone has already thought about my problem. How big a chainring can my frame handle. I Googled in come uncertain terms and voilà, it's right there as the first result. Not clued into the 3D printing stuff... but my intrepid nephew was able to print one in no time. Great tool for Trackies, and mos def made by Trackies.
I actually had to adjust the print a little bit because my printing bed is 180mm x 180mm, but it does say the dimensions right there in the description so that’s my bad. I was still able to fit it onto the bed with all the sizes though and everything worked out. Print was under 30 mins - cheap, quick, and exactly what I needed
Awesome. So much fun to print and so handy to check chainrings will fit!!
