Race Face Cinch Narrow Wide Direct Mount Chainring Info

The Race Face Cinch Narrow Wide Direct Mount Chainring is built specifically for the Cinch crankset platform — it slides directly onto the Cinch splines on the right crank arm and locks in place with the included lock ring, keeping the interface clean and the drivetrain stiff. Machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, it's light without being fragile, and the 4mm plate thickness keeps flex out of the equation when you're putting power down hard.

The narrow-wide tooth profile is what holds a 1x drivetrain together on rough ground. By alternating between narrower and wider teeth to match the inner and outer links of the chain, chain retention improves noticeably over a standard chainring — without relying on a separate guide for most trail riding. The ring is compatible with 9-, 10-, 11-, and 12-speed chains, so it works across a wide range of drivetrain builds.
