Hi, has anyone changed the chainring on a 2020 stance e pro? Looking for a walkthrough. Cheers

I haven't replaced mine but on my 2019 Trance E+3 i have taken it off a couple of times. On your bike it's easy just undo the chain then undo the 4 bolts that hold the chainring. Then just wiggle the chainring around the crank to get it off.
Mine has the Praxis chainring so it is threaded. I'm not sure yours is the same as it has a SRAM chainring but if it is and you replace it with something that's not threaded you'll need a set of these

All sorted now thanks.

My 2021 Trance came with a 36 T chain ring and most of my riding is easy not going up steep grades. Most of the time I am in the two smallest rear gears. I would like to go to a larger front ring to get more chain contact in the rear sprocket. Any problems with that and suggestions. I looked on Praxis suite and don't see anything larger than 36 T. Might just be living with it.

With something like this you have to order some chainring bolts with it because they are not threaded like the Praxis ring.

I was warned by the LBS that a 40 T might not fit as it could cause issues with the chain guide and possibly even hit the frame. Has anyone put a 40T on a 2021 Trance E 29er.

Maybe living with it is the best option after all

Was looking for (and found) a bigger (38T is max for the upper chain guide on my Trance E+2 Pro MY2020) chainring too. You'll have to drill the chainring holder because regulair chainring bolts are too wide to fit in the holes. Anyone with a plug and play solution? Smaller (M6) chainring bolts?
