Elliptical Direct Mount Chainring - 32t RaceFace CINCH Boost Drop-Stop ST Shimano 12 Speed HG+ BLK

Discover the Wolf Tooth Elliptical Direct Mount Chainring, a game - changer for your cycling experience. With 32 teeth, it's designed specifically for RaceFace CINCH Boost Cranks when used with a Shimano 12 - speed Hyperglide+ chain. The elliptical shape of the chainring boosts efficiency in the recovery zone and enhances traction due to consistent torque. It's only compatible with Shimano Hyperglide+ 12 - speed chains. You can use it with any RaceFace CINCH boost crankset that has a 3mm offset. This chainring keeps the Hyperglide+ drivetrain running quietly and smoothly, with excellent chain retention. It also prevents early wear on the ring and chain that can result from non - optimized profiles. Featuring Wolf Tooth’s patented Drop - Stop wide/narrow tooth profile, it offers top - notch chain retention and great mud - shedding ability. Made from long - lasting 7075 - T6 aluminum, this black chainring is built to last.

Using this chainring is straightforward. First, make sure you have a Shimano 12 - speed Hyperglide+ chain and a RaceFace CINCH boost crankset with a 3mm offset. Then, mount the chainring onto the crankset. When riding, you'll notice better efficiency in the recovery phase and more traction. As for maintenance, regularly clean the chainring with a mild bike cleaner and a soft brush. Check the chain and the chainring for any signs of wear. If you notice excessive wear or if the chain doesn't fit well anymore, it might be time to replace the chain or the chainring. Remember, this chainring is only for use with Shimano Hyperglide+ 12 - speed chains, so don't try to use it with other types of chains to avoid damage.
