Crafted from premium CNC-machined 7075 aluminum, this lightweight chainring weighs just 54 grams, offering a superb weight-to-strength ratio for competitive and recreational riders alike.

Materials & Durability:

Constructed from aircraft-grade 7075 aluminum, the chainring boasts exceptional durability and corrosion resistance. The anodized black finish provides added protection against scratches and wear, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh riding conditions. The 3D-machined teeth are optimized for superior mud shedding, quieter engagement, and reduced wear, making it ideal for mountain biking, gravel riding, and all-mountain adventures.

Performance & Engineering:

The oval shape of this chainring is scientifically engineered to optimize power transfer and reduce stress on your knees by promoting a more efficient pedaling motion. With an ovality ranging from 10.2% to 14.4%, and timing between 110.5 and 116.3 after TDC, it adapts perfectly to your pedaling dynamics, resulting in smoother acceleration and fatigue reduction. The design maintains a seamless integration with movement and force application, ensuring consistent performance mile after mile.

Components & Technology:

Features the patent-pending narrow-wide tooth profile, which actively keeps the chain securely in place during aggressive riding or rough terrains. The teeth are 3D-machined for enhanced mud clearance, minimized chain noise, and extended lifespan. This chainring is engineered specifically for 10, 11, and 12-speed SRAM and Shimano drivetrains, ensuring perfect compatibility and faultless shifting.

Style & Use Case:

With a sleek black finish and a compact 28-tooth count, this chainring is perfect for aggressive trail riding, enduro, cross-country, and gravel adventures. The 3mm offset is optimized for bikes with Boost spacing and can be reversed for fat bikes or specific setups, delivering versatility across various bike platforms and riding styles.
