RaceFace Direct Mount CINCH Chainring

This chainring is compatible with 9, 10, 11, and 12-speed 1x drivetrain systems. It is specifically designed for the Race Face CINCH direct mount interface, so ensure your crankset uses that standard before purchasing.

The 3mm offset is designed to correct the chainline for Boost spacing frames. It ensures your chain stays aligned properly with your cassette, which helps reduce wear and improves shifting performance.

The narrow-wide profile alternates the width of the teeth to match the inner and outer links of your chain. This creates a tight, secure fit that prevents the chain from bouncing off, even when you are riding over rough, technical terrain.

Yes, the 4mm thickness is engineered to provide extra stiffness. You will notice less flex when you put power down during steep climbs or sprints, resulting in a more direct and efficient feeling through the pedals.

One of the main benefits of the CINCH system is that it allows for quick, tool-free swaps between rings and spiders. You will need a standard bottom bracket tool to remove the lockring, but the interface itself is designed for straightforward maintenance.
