Unite Oval Shimano Direct Mount Chainring V2 32T Purple

The Unite Oval Shimano Direct Mount Chainring V2 32T shares all of the great features that the standard chainring has to offer but with an oval profile.Unite's oval design has many advantages over their standard round rings:Improves traction while climbing.Reduces knee pain.12% ovality (32T is equal to 30T-34T range).115° Clocking from crank arm puts the major axis in your power stroke.Unite's chainrings are CNC machined in-house from 7075 T6 aluminium billet, one of the hardest grades of aluminium available. Couple this with the high quality, vibrant anodised finish and they have a winning combination to make your ride stand out from the crowd!A large amount of wear occurs on the front face of chainrings due to the extreme chain-line caused by 1x setups, Unite's extra wide alternating tooth profile improves both durability and retention for a longer period. As chains begin to stretch they start to bind in certain places damaging the chain and ring. Our chainrings have specially machined recesses which help to prevent this damage, increasing the longevity of the chain ring and chain. Grip Rings utilise a stiff and light design that is efficient and offers excellent protection from rock strikes.Unite Oval Shimano Direct Mount Chainring V2 32T FeaturesShimano 12spd Hyperglide+ compatibleAlso Compatible with SRAM and KMC chainsNarrow/wide chain profile prevents chain dropWide-tooth profile for extra retentionRecessed for improved mud clearance and improved chain ring lifeCNC machined from hard-wearing 7075-T6 AluminiumAvailable sizes: 32TFits M7100, M8100, M9100 cranksetsWeight: 32T-66gBoost offsetAnodised finish is available in several colours.For the best results when using a narrow-wide chainring, Unite recommends the following:Use with a clutch mech, and regularly check the tension.Check for chain wear, a worn chain will increase chain drops and wear out your drivetrain faster.Check your chain length, too slack and you will lose retention, too tight and the chain will break.Keep your chain/bike clean and well lubricated.Couple it with the Unite Chain Guide.
