Square taper chainset

mirrormatrix

Anyone know where I can buy one of these? Went onto Wiggle and Chainreaction but all they seem to do is Hollowtech.

As background, I have an 8 speed flat bar road bike which has a square taper BB and chainset and I'm looking to replace like with like. It's just a beater so i've no real interest in getting a different style of BB.

As a related question, I assume I can use a 9 speed chainset with an 8 speed cassette/chain/shifters?

Thanks!

I did a search on CRC and found these.

9 speed chainset will be grand with 8 speed components, the width of the teeth will be slightly smaller but it shouldnt be noticable.

Great thanks! Don't know how I missed this tbh. I have a triple so the acera should do the job.
