The SRAM Eagle X-Sync Direct Mount Chainring is designed for mountain bikers running 12-speed Eagle drivetrains who prioritize efficient power transfer and reliable chain security. By utilizing X-Sync 2 technology, this chainring significantly reduces friction and noise, making it an ideal upgrade for those seeking consistent performance on technical terrain; however, users should note that it is specifically engineered for direct-mount crank interfaces, limiting its compatibility with traditional spider-based cranksets.

No, this chainring is specifically engineered for the dimensions and tolerances of 12-speed Eagle chains.
No, this is a replacement chainring only, designed for compatible SRAM direct mount cranksets.
Boost spacing pushes the chainring slightly outward to accommodate wider rear axle standards, providing better tire clearance and a stronger wheel.
Replacement intervals vary by riding style and maintenance, but it is typically recommended to replace the chainring when it shows visible hooked teeth or when the chain skips under load.
SRAM Eagle X-Sync direct mount chainrings are typically constructed from high-strength aluminum for an ideal balance of weight and durability.
Check for chain wear and ensure the chainring is tightened to the correct torque specification.
Verify that your derailleur B-gap is adjusted according to the Eagle drivetrain guide and check for a bent chainring tooth.
Ensure the splines are clean of debris and properly aligned before applying torque.
To install, ensure you have a dedicated SRAM chainring removal tool for the lockring interface. Clean the crank spindle splines thoroughly before mounting the ring to prevent creaking. Use a torque wrench to tighten the lockring to the manufacturer-specified torque—typically 40 Nm.
Compatibility: This model is designed for Boost spacing and is compatible with SRAM XX1, X01, and X1-1400 direct mount cranksets. It is intended for use exclusively with 12-speed Eagle chains.
Care: Periodically check for tooth wear. While the hard-anodized finish is durable, replacing the chain as it reaches 0.5% wear will significantly extend the life of your chainring.
