Product Description

Using this chainring is easy. First, make sure your bike has a Shimano XTR 9000 or 9020 crankset as it's only compatible with these. If you have a 9-speed drivetrain, use a 10-speed chain for a better fit. When it comes to 12-speed chains, if it's a Shimano one, you'll need a special chainring from Wolf Tooth. As for maintenance, keep it clean by washing it regularly with mild soap and water. After cleaning, dry it thoroughly to prevent rust, especially since it's made of aluminum. Also, check the teeth regularly for any signs of wear and replace the chainring if needed to ensure smooth and efficient operation.
