Wolf Tooth Direct Mount Chainrings for Race Face Cinch

Wolf Tooth Direct Mount Chainrings for Race Face Cinch Info

Wolf Tooth Direct Mount Chainrings for Race Face Cinch are engineered for riders who demand precise chain retention, optimized chainline, and long-term durability from their 1x drivetrain. Designed specifically for Race Face Cinch cranksets—including Turbine, Next SL, SIXC, and Aeffect—these direct mount chainrings deliver a clean interface and performance you can rely on in trail, enduro, and XC applications.

Precision CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, each chainring features Wolf Tooth’s patented Drop-Stop® wide/narrow tooth profile. The alternating tooth design maximizes engagement on the drive side to distribute load and extend wear life, while the narrow profile clears mud and debris to maintain efficiency in rough conditions. Tooth profiles are optimized for SRAM T-Type Transmission, Shimano Hyperglide+, and all modern 12-, 11-, 10-, and 9-speed chains.

Offset & Chainline Options

Wolf Tooth offers multiple offset configurations to ensure correct chainline for your frame and hub spacing:

• Standard (142mm rear hub spacing): 6mm offset – 49mm chainline (28–34T) or 51mm (36T for added chainstay clearance).
• Boost (148mm rear hub spacing): 3mm offset – 52mm chainline.
• Boost T-Type Transmission (148mm hub spacing, 55mm chainline): 0mm offset.
• Super Boost (151mm rear hub spacing): 3mm offset for standard drivetrains or Transmission.

Riders running SRAM Transmission with Race Face Cinch cranksets and a Boost 136/137mm spindle should use a 0mm offset chainring. Riders using a Super Boost 151mm spindle should select a 3mm offset chainring.
