SRAM Force E1 Flattop Chain - 126 Links

The SRAM Force E1 Flattop Chain delivers high-performance shifting with reduced noise, increased strength, and improved wear resistance. Built for 12-speed road and 13-speed gravel drivetrains, it features advanced Flattop technology and durable finishes to ensure long-lasting reliability on every ride.Key Features and Benefits:Flattop chain design for 12/13-speed drivetrains: This unique flat-edge profile enables a narrower chain, reducing drivetrain noise and increasing strength and lifespan. The result is smoother, quieter shifting with longer service intervals.Hard Chrome-plated inner link plates and rollers: The plating reduces surface wear and boosts overall durability. This helps the chain maintain performance over high mileage, lowering replacement frequency.Link plate cut-outs on inner and outer plates: These precision cut-outs remove excess material without compromising strength. This reduces overall chain weight, improving bike efficiency and ride feel.Flattop PowerLock connector included: The secure, tool-free link allows for easy installation while maintaining full drivetrain compatibility and performance. This adds convenience without sacrificing safety.Compatible with 12-speed road and 13-speed XPLR AXS drivetrains: Designed for seamless integration across SRAM s latest road and gravel systems. This guarantees precise, reliable shifting performance on any drop-bar setup.Chrome-hardened solid pins: Treated pins increase shear strength and resist elongation under load. This ensures consistent chain tension and efficient power transfer ride after ride.Built for riders who demand reliable performance over long distances, this chain supports consistent shifting and reduced maintenance across demanding conditions. Whether used on 12-speed road bikes or 13-speed gravel setups, it provides the durability and quiet operation needed for uninterrupted performance over time.Upgrade your drivetrain with a chain that brings durability, low noise, and efficient shifting to the forefront. Engineered to meet the demands of modern road and gravel riding.Specification:Compatibility - Speed (CN) 12, 13Chain length (links) 114 links, 126 linksColour - Outer link Purple or SilverColour - Inner link Purple Or SilverChain connector PowerLock D1Inner link finish Chrome Hardened, Chrome Plated, PVDOuter link finish Nickel, PVDPin variant Solid PinPin treatment Chrome HardenedChain Technology Road Flattop E1E-Bike Approved Yes
