Product Description

It features Wolf Tooth's innovative Drop - Stop tooth design, which offers excellent mud clearance, superior chain retention, and high durability.

They are compatible with all 10 -, 11 -, and 12 - speed chains, except Shimano 12 - speed chains that need Wolf Tooth's specific chainrings. For 9 - speed drivetrains, using a 10 - speed chain will give a tighter fit and better chain retention. Made from long - lasting 7075 Aluminum, it comes in a sleek black color.

Using this chainring is quite straightforward. First, make sure your crankset is one of the compatible Shimano models: XT M8000, SLX M7000, or Deore M6000. Then, just install the chainring on your crankset as you normally would. When it comes to the chain, remember that it works with most 10, 11, and 12 - speed chains, but if you have a Shimano 12 - speed chain, you'll need a special Wolf Tooth chainring. For 9 - speed drivetrains, use a 10 - speed chain for a better fit. As for maintenance, regularly clean the chainring with a mild cleaner and a soft brush to remove mud and dirt. This will keep the Drop - Stop tooth design working effectively and ensure long - term durability. Store it in a dry place when not in use to prevent rusting.
