This chainring explosion was probably a result of a little bit of neglect judging from the thick coat of grime on the drivetrain. Regardless, the owner wasn’t really sure why it happened.

* I say, Part 1, because, I’m sure, there’ll be more similar diagnoses in the future.

Eh, these things happen. It looks like a cheaper chainring, coupled with no maintenance and somebody cranking a bit hard… I remember having the cassette on a pacific bike explode when i was a kid.
