Thanks** A: Hi thank you8 for your query the 170mm is center to center thank you kind regards sue cyclerepairs **Q: Hi. Will this product work as a straight replacement for a suntour xcc 42/32/22T 7 speed MTB?** A: Would imagine as with replacing my own mountain bike crank gears it would make it slightly more user friendly for road use by making it slightly higher geared. May mean a bit of adjustment to the deraileur but as long as the crank fitting is square I would think it should be OK. **Q: Can you recommend a replacement model for shimano tourney fc m131 chainset with chainguard 48/38 / 28t 170 mm** A: Have just ordered a Shimano Altus FCM-311 Crank Set 48/38/28 170mm. If you contact me in a week I can confirm that it definitely fits. **Q: can i take the kogs off** A: Hi, The rings are pressed together and not replaceable. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent quality "entry level" part *by E***B on 11 July 2014* I was given a MTB which was gathering dust, swapped the knobbly tyres for Schwalbe city jets, discovered that on the flat and downhill I was running out of gears and replaced the 42/34/24t chainset with this. It's excellent quality for an entry-level part (better than the part it replaced) and gives me the extra top-end gear that I needed - result; about 5% time improvement on roads/tracks and no more frantic pedalling to no effect! Well worth the mod, however, you will need a crank puller (else risk trashing your bearings with hammer and chisel). I found that the distance between cogs was slightly greater, so the 42t derailleur on the bike couldn't quite cope - I got a compatible one from the same seller (their *bay shop as it happens) and a cable locally; and now my front gear changes are sweeet. To keep everything running well a slightly longer chain is also in order.If you're going down this route - don't forget a chain splitter. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value - works well *by S***N on 4 May 2014* Needed to replace the chainset on my Claud Butler hybrid as the chain had begun to slip under load, and an internet search revealed this as the cheapest option. The hardest part of fitting was removal of the old set. You'll need an Allen key and a bike crank removal tool and a bit of determination, but fitting is a doddle, it simply slides onto the square shaft and is attached using the Allen key.This was an almost perfect fit requiring only very slight adjustment of the front derailleur to get the gear change to be perfect.I also replaced the chain and the freewheel at the same time as they all tend to wear together and I've found it a false economy to try to get by.It will be interesting to see how durable this chainset is, but so far I'm happy to have cured the chain-slip. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good value replacement *by A***E on 1 May 2014* This replaced the worn out cogs on my Trek bike. They are an exact copy of the originals. I bought them in a set with chain and front ring. Good value. A mobile bike repair guy fitted them for £30 quid. This product is bigger than the original so the gear shift thingy had to be moved up by half an inch. The gearing is now a little higher (i.e. a bit harder to pedal) but I've got used to it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/48700678-shimano-tourney-fc-m131-chainset-with-chainguard-48-38-28t](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/48700678-shimano-tourney-fc-m131-chainset-with-chainguard-48-38-28t) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
