Elliptical Direct Mount Chainring - 42t SRAM Direct Mount Drop-Stop B For SRAM 8-Bolt Cranksets 6mm Offset BLK

Wolf Tooth presents this 42t elliptical direct mount chainring in sleek black. It's specifically designed for SRAM 8-bolt cranksets with a 6mm offset. The patented Drop-Stop asymmetrical tooth design offers great wear life, mud clearance, and chain retention. The elliptical shape boosts efficiency during the recovery phase and increases traction due to consistent torque. It's suitable for 1x9, 1x10, 1x11, and 1x12 drivetrains. Compatible with all 10-, 11-, and 12-speed chains except Shimano 12-speed chains, which need Wolf Tooth's specific chainrings. Works well with SRAM AXS cranksets and other 8-bolt mounting cranks. Comes with a set of 8 custom T20 stainless steel bolts and is made from long - lasting 7075 - T6 aluminum.

Using this chainring is straightforward. First, make sure your crankset is an 8 - bolt SRAM type. Then, use the provided custom T20 stainless steel bolts to attach the chainring to the crankset. When choosing a chain, remember it's compatible with most 10 - 12 speed chains, but not Shimano 12 - speed ones. For best results, use it with 1x9, 1x10, 1x11, or 1x12 drivetrains. As for maintenance, after each ride, clean the chainring with a mild detergent and water to remove mud and dirt. This will help keep the Drop - Stop tooth design working well. Check the bolts regularly to ensure they're tight. Since it's made of aluminum, avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface. Store it in a dry place when not in use to prevent rust.
