No matter where you ride, no matter what youre up against, SRAM 1X takes you further. Make SRAM 1X even better with the simplicity of the new SRAM X-SYNC Direct Mount chain ring. Engineered in Germany, the new Direct Mount rings bring lighter weight and greater simplicity to XX1, X01, X1-1400, and GX-1400 cranksets. SRAMs Direct Mount rings give riders the perfect opportunity for a serious upgrade.
