The absoluteBLACK Oval 1X CX chainring for cyclocross direct mount cranks by SRAM


This oval 1-speed chainring by absoluteBLACK was developed for SRAM cranks like Force and Rival, whose spider can be removed and replaced by a Direct Mount chainring. It is perfect for cyclocross or gravel biking thanks to its dirt-repellent properties. The chainring is made of premium quality aluminium and features a Narrow-Wide tooth profile to counteract chain drop. Thanks to the oval shape, you optimise your pedalling movement, reduce the strain on your knees and move forward faster.

Technology:

Oval Chainrings
Oval chainrings follow the natural physiology of humans. They maximise pedalling power the moment it is developed and minimise resistance when it is not. As a result, oval chainrings allow the rider to pedal more smoothly and stay loose on the climb.
In fact, your pedal stroke will feel " rounder" with an oval chainring than with a round chainring.
Compared to round chainrings, oval chainrings address more muscle groups - but each of them to a lesser degree. The total load of pedalling is therefore distributed over a larger muscle mass and the knees are less strained.
This has three advantages: 1. The legs remain fresher and more relaxed. 2. You can go uphill faster. 3. Spreading the load over more muscles reduces the susceptibility to cramps, even with great effort. Ultimately this will increase your riding pleasure. For MTB applications, the rear wheel traction is increased on loose and slippery surfaces, allowing you to make better progress on demanding terrain.

item: black/40 tooth

Montage, Verarbeitung und Design top, viel leichter als das SRAM-Originalblatt inkl. Spider. Tipp: Verzahnung dünn mit Kupferpaste schmieren, Bolzen mit Schraubenkleber sichern. Nach 600 km bin ich restlos überzeugt von der ovalen Form, macht den Tritt spürbar "runder" und homogener. Interessanter Nebeneffekt bei mir: Kein Knarzen der Cleats in den Pedalen mehr! 100% Kaufempfehlung.
