FAQ

What cranks does this chainring fit?

It fits SRAM RED and Force road cranks that use the 8-bolt direct-mount interface. The chainring mounts directly to the crank arm assembly with no separate spider. Confirm your crank uses the DM 8-bolt interface before ordering.

What is X-Sync?

X-Sync is SRAM's narrow-wide tooth profile for 1x drivetrains. Alternating narrow and wide teeth match the chain's inner and outer links for superior chain retention without a chain guide.

Which chain does it use?

It runs SRAM 12-speed Road Flattop chains used across the road AXS ecosystem, and is compatible with 12 and 13-speed setups.

Does the chainring come with bolts?

Yes. Each chainring includes 8 chainring bolts for the direct-mount interface.

Best For

Road and gravel riders running SRAM 12-speed 1x on RED or Force direct-mount cranks who want to fine-tune gearing or refresh a worn ring. Pairs with a SRAM RED or Force direct-mount crank arm assembly, sold separately.
