Wolf Tooth Direct Mount Chainrings for SRAM 8-Bolt Gravel / Road Cranks - Raw Silver

Wolf Tooth Direct Mount Chainrings for SRAM 8-Bolt Gravel / Road Cranks - Raw Silver Info

The Wolf Tooth Direct Mount Chainrings for SRAM 8-Bolt Gravel / Road Cranks – Raw Silver bring precision engineering and clean aesthetics together in a single lightweight upgrade. Machined from a solid block of 7075-T6 aluminum, this one-piece design replaces both the spider and chainring, reducing weight, improving stiffness, and delivering the crisp power transfer that performance-focused road and gravel riders expect. The polished Raw Silver finish further highlights Wolf Tooth’s meticulous machining and gives modern SRAM drivetrains an elevated, refined look.

At the heart of the design is Wolf Tooth’s patented Drop-Stop B tooth profile, engineered to maximize chain retention with SRAM Eagle and Flattop chains across 12- and 13-speed systems. Alternating wide/narrow teeth shed mud, maintain chain stability at speed, and extend wear life—key benefits for riders navigating everything from fast tarmac to rugged gravel. With options from 38T to 52T, the ring supports a wide range of gearing strategies for endurance events, loaded bikepacking, or high-speed road efforts.

This direct-mount interface replaces existing spiders or chainrings on SRAM 8-bolt road and gravel crankarms, including SRAM AXS models, DUB road cranksets, and the 2025 Cane Creek eeWings Titanium Cranks. Chainline is optimized at 45 mm for standard spindles and 47.5 mm for wide spindles, ensuring smooth shifting and consistent drivetrain alignment. Installation is straightforward using the included custom T20 bolts, making the upgrade accessible whether you are fine-tuning your drivetrain or building a performance-driven rig from the ground up.
