SRAM X-Sync Road Chainring: Precision-Engineered Performance

Built for competitive cyclists and endurance riders seeking seamless power transfer, the SRAM X-Sync Road Direct Mount Chainring combines cutting-edge tooth profiling with rugged durability. Its asymmetrical wide/narrow tooth design grips chains securely under high-torque sprints or steep climbs, reducing skipped gears by up to 30% compared to standard profiles (lab tested).

Key Advantages
✓ X-Range Gearing Integration: Optimized for 12-speed drivetrains (Rival AXS/12), offering 22% broader gear range than traditional 11-speed setups
✓ Direct Mount Compatibility: Secure fitment on SRAM Rival frames without spacers (mounting hardware included)
✓ Wear-Resistant Finish: Laser-textured surface withstands 500+ hours of road/gravel riding without deformation
✓ Weight Efficiency: 190g lighter than caged chainrings while maintaining torsional rigidity
