Race Face Era Cinch Chainring

The Era Cinch uses a hybrid construction that combines carbon fiber, aluminum, and stainless steel. By using stainless steel specifically for the teeth, it offers significantly better wear resistance than a traditional all-aluminum ring without adding unnecessary weight.

This chainring is designed for 1x setups and is compatible with 10, 11, and 12-speed drivetrains. As long as your crankset utilizes the Race Face CINCH direct mount interface, it will fit.

Yes, because it uses the CINCH direct mount system, you will need a standard bottom bracket tool (typically a 16-notch, 44mm tool) to remove the lockring and install the chainring onto your crank arm.

Yes, the narrow-wide tooth profile is specifically engineered to lock the chain in place. This design provides reliable chain retention, which is essential for preventing drops during aggressive riding or rough terrain.

The Race Face Era Cinch weighs 83 grams. While weight can vary depending on the tooth count and material, this hybrid construction is optimized to keep the weight low while prioritizing the durability of the stainless steel teeth.
