The SRAM X-Sync 2 Direct Mount 3mm Offset Boost Chainring is designed for mountain bikers seeking a reliable, high-performance drivetrain upgrade for Boost-spaced frames. By utilizing specialized Eagle technology, this chainring provides exceptional chain retention and pedaling efficiency while minimizing noise and friction; however, users must ensure their crankset is compatible with the direct-mount interface and that their frame requires the 3mm offset standard.

The 3mm offset moves the chainring position to accommodate the wider 148mm Boost rear hub spacing, ensuring an optimal chainline.
While it may function, the X-Sync 2 tooth profile is specifically engineered for optimal performance and wear characteristics with SRAM Eagle chains.
3mm offset is for Boost frames (148mm), while 6mm offset is typically used for non-Boost or older standard frames.
It is compatible with SRAM direct-mount cranksets. It will not fit cranksets from other manufacturers that use different mounting standards.
Replace the chainring when you notice shark-finning on the teeth or when you experience skipping even after replacing the chain.
Check chain wear using a gauge and verify the chain is properly lubed and seated correctly on the teeth.
Verify the derailleur cage tension is sufficient and ensure you are using a compatible SRAM Eagle chain.
Ensure the chainring is tightened to the recommended torque spec and check that your derailleur hanger is straight.
Installation requires removing the existing chainring using a SRAM-specific direct-mount lockring tool. Ensure the crank spindle and mounting interface are clean of old grease and debris before installing the new ring. When mounting, verify that the 3mm offset is correct for your Boost-spaced frame (148mm rear axle spacing); installing the wrong offset will cause significant cross-chaining and premature wear. For maintenance, clean the ring regularly to remove grit, and apply a high-quality bicycle-specific lubricant to your chain to maintain the efficiency gains offered by the X-Sync 2 profile.
