Plato CINCH DM de Wolf Tooth RaceFace/Easton

The Wolf Tooth RaceFace/Easton CINCH DM Chainring is a precision direct-mount chainring built for Riders who demand peak drivetrain performance, superior chain retention, and optimized mud clearance. Made from 7075-T6 aluminum, this chainring employs Wolf Tooth’s patented Drop-Stop® tooth profiles and is compatible with 9-, 10-, 11-, and 12-speed systems, including SRAM Eagle, Flattop 12-speed, and other brands.

Available in a range of tooth counts (typically 28 to 36 teeth for MTB, 38 to 50 for road/gravel depending on style), and multiple offsets (0 mm, 3 mm, 6 mm), this chainring lets you dial in perfect chainline depending on your crankset, rear hub spacing, or frame geometry. Whether for RaceFace CINCH or Easton CINCH cranksets (including Turbine, Next SL, SixC, Aeffect, etc.), it delivers durability and performance under aggressive use.
