FAQs

Is this chainring compatible with 12-speed chains?

This ring is designed for 1x systems; while it works with many common chain widths, check your specific chain manufacturer's compatibility for 1x narrow-wide systems.

Can I use this on an e-bike?

Yes, the steel construction is specifically recommended for e-bike use because it handles high torque and wear better than aluminum.

Does this ring require a chain guide?

The narrow-wide tooth profile is designed to retain the chain without a guide, though some riders prefer one for extreme downhill conditions.

What is the BCD of this ring?

This chainring has a 96mm BCD.

How should I clean the steel ring?

Use a gentle degreaser and a stiff brush, then dry it immediately with a clean rag to prevent oxidation.

Troubleshooting

Chain making grinding noise

Check if the chain is fully seated on the teeth and verify that your chainline is straight.

Signs of surface rust

Use a fine-grit scouring pad to remove surface oxidation and apply a thin layer of chain oil for protection.

Chain skipping under load

Ensure that your chain is not excessively worn and that the BCD alignment is centered.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior chain retention in rough conditions
  • High durability thanks to steel construction
  • Excellent value for high-mileage riders
  • Ideal for high-torque e-bike setups

Cons

  • Heavier than aluminum equivalent models
  • Steel is more susceptible to surface oxidation if not maintained
  • Limited to 96mm BCD compatible cranksets

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install this chainring, you must ensure your crankset supports a 96mm Bolt Circle Diameter (BCD).

  1. Remove the old chainring by unbolting the fixing screws.
  2. Align the SunRace chainring so the narrow-wide tooth sequence matches the chain links.
  3. Tighten the mounting bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque rating.
  4. Ensure your chain is properly sized for a 1x drivetrain.

For care, wipe the ring clean with a dry cloth after wet rides and apply a light bicycle-specific lubricant to prevent rust. Check bolt tightness every 100 miles to ensure optimal safety.
