Elliptical Direct Mount Chainring - 44t SRAM Direct Mount Drop-Stop B For SRAM 8-Bolt Cranksets 6mm Offset BLK

Wolf Tooth presents this amazing elliptical direct mount chainring. It's a 44 - tooth SRAM direct mount Drop - Stop B chainring, specifically designed for SRAM 8 - bolt cranksets with a 6mm offset and comes in a sleek black color. The patented Drop - Stop asymmetrical tooth design offers great wear life, excellent mud clearance, and reliable chain retention. The elliptical shape boosts efficiency in the recovery zone and increases traction due to consistent torque. It works well with 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. It also fits 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 quite straightforward. First, make sure your crankset is a SRAM 8 - bolt one. Then, use the included custom T20 stainless steel bolts to mount the chainring securely on the crankset. When it comes to the drivetrain, it can work with 1x9, 1x10, 1x11, and 1x12 setups, but remember, Shimano 12 - speed chains require a special chainring from Wolf Tooth. As for maintenance, regularly clean the chainring to keep it free from mud and debris. You can use a mild cleaner and a soft brush. After cleaning, dry it thoroughly. Also, check the bolts periodically to ensure they are tight. Store the chainring in a dry place when not in use to prevent rust and damage.
