Timeline for Halfords just replaced my chainset and it is a 10 speed one, but my cassette is 8 speed. Am I ok?

I think I will just have to visit a different/better halfords store and complain about my experience and ask them to fit me an 8sp chainset. | |

| Aug 31, 2014 at 19:13 | comment | added | PeteH | no you're not. Regarding the width of the chain, 8 speed is different to 9-speed is different to 10-speed is different to 11-speed. People will say you can get away with mismatches, but coming straight out of a shop, you shouldn't have to "get away" with anything. There has to be a question on here that covers this, U'll have a quick look. | |
