Designed for versatility, this model uses Wolf Tooth's renowned Drop-Stop technology, which improves chainring life and allows clearance for mud and debris. This makes it a great choice of upgrade for riders who want greater strength and reliability on every ride. Wolf Tooth was first to market with Cyclocross 1x specific chainrings because we saw Cyclocross as the perfect use for our Drop-Stop® technology. Since their release, the uses for these rings has expanded beyond Cyclocross to commuting, gravel riding, mountain bikes with 5-arm crank power meters, and even full on-road applications with the giant 50t rings. Drop-Stop technology. On Wolf Tooth’s patented wide/narrow chainring, the wide side of the tooth has maximum contact on the drive side which spreads the load and improves chainring life. The narrow side allows clearance for mud and debris which reduces friction. Alternating wide/narrow tooth pattern prevents chain derailment. Compatibility: These rings are for use with 110 BCD 5 arm cranksets. Stock 2x bolts will not work. You will need bolts like Wolf Tooth's 6mm bolts which are optimized for single ring mounting. Chainline - varies - these rings can be mounted in either the big or small ring position on a double cranksets. The most common mounting is in the big ring position because of chainstay clearance. The ring centerline is ~2mm from the ring's mounting face so they usually sit about 2mm closer to the frame than the stock big ring (depends on the stock ring).
This superb model is machined from AL7075-T6 and is ramped and pinned to ensure that shifting is precise and smooth with no chain suck. Additionally, its pins are stainless steel, which resists corrosion.
Manufactured from steel with a black anodised finish.
Pushing you on with precision, this Blackspire Snaggletooth chainring features a tough aluminium build. This makes it perfect at handling all the abuse that the woodland throws at you as you blast over rock gardens, tree roots and debris with style. Blackspire has also raised the bar by putting this sleek model through a CNC-machining process which shaves off any unnecessary weight. This allows you to enjoy its incredible strength without weighing down your ride with excess grams. Ovalised MTB Chainring Designed for ease of use, this ovalised chainring grants the benefit of making it easier to pedal when your leg is at its maximum power output. It also creates a smoother power balance when your legs are at the weakest point in their rotation. The power going to your rear wheel will be linear, making traction consistent, in turn making it less likely to lose power or spin your wheel on hard climbs by avoiding the dead spot in your pedal rotation.
This stunning model is constructed from strong CNC'd 7075 T6 aluminium and has been specifically built for use with Shimano's XT M8000 cranks. Lightweight and reliable, this version shows off a highly praised tooth profile that's specially designed for 1x drivetrains. By adding a more constant torque to your rear wheel, you'll benefit from maximised traction and grip during climbs while also eliminating the chance of stalls and spinouts.
This stunning chainring grips your chain perfectly, prevents chain drops and will increase the confidence you have in your bike's drivetrain. Thanks to its ovalised design, you'll benefit from easier pedalling when your leg is at its maximum power output and a smoother power balance when your legs are at the weakest point in their rotation.
The Wave pattern applies alternating lateral force to each chain link to actively retain links to the ring - going beyond narrow/wide implementation that relies solely on friction. MRP’s Wave tooth pattern swings right to left, grasping the interior of the chain for retention, but allowing room for mud, debris, and grit to escape. The Wave design creates more open areas for mud and debris evacuation and preserves chain retention in adverse conditions - one of many “Achilles’ Heels” of narrow/wide designs. Designed with mindful consideration of system friction, the Wave design actively engages the chain but yields much less concentrated wear than competing designs, spreading the load over large surface areas instead. Machined from durable, long-wearing 7000-series aluminium. Wave Chainring Technology Advancements The MRP Wave chainring technology utilises a host of features to provide robust chain handling and retention characteristics while providing market-leading durability. Technological features and benefits include the following: - 49mm (standard) chainline - Tooth faces displaced from nominal centerline to provide active and positive lateral engagement of every chain link with a chainring tooth. - Alternating lateral force to each chain link to actively retain links to the ring. - Less surface contact between chainring and chain creating minimal friction and maximum retention. - Equal tooth thickness on the entire chainring to allow for maximum mud-shedding clearance. - Tooth design allows for reduced weight chainrings over competitor technology.
