FAQ

Can I use a standard Eagle PowerLock link with this chain?

No. The Eagle 70 T-Type Flattop Chain requires the Eagle T-Type PowerLock Flattop Connector Link. Standard Eagle PowerLock links have a different outer plate height that disrupts the flat top profile at the joint, which can cause skipping or degraded shift quality on T-Type derailleurs. The Flattop Connector Link is sold separately.

Is the Eagle 70 Flattop Chain compatible with non-T-Type Eagle derailleurs?

The Eagle 70 Flattop Chain is designed for T-Type Transmission builds. While the 12-speed pitch is the same as standard Eagle chains, the Flattop outer plate geometry is optimized for the T-Type derailleur engagement profile. SRAM recommends running it with T-Type derailleurs for the system to perform as intended.

Is the Eagle 70 T-Type Chain E-MTB compatible?

Yes. The Eagle 70 T-Type Flattop Chain is E-MTB compatible and built to handle the higher drivetrain loads that come with a motor-assist system, making it a solid choice for T-Type equipped e-mountain bikes.

Best For

Riders on Eagle 90 T-Type, GX T-Type, or E-MTB T-Type builds who need a reliable Flattop chain replacement without the premium finish of upper-tier Eagle T-Type chains.
