Magazine reviews for Race Face Cinch Narrow/Wide Direct Mount Chainring

Review from MBR

Like SRAM XX1 and XO1, Race Face's new Narrow/Wide chainrings use a fat/thin tooth profile to aid chain retention. The idea is that this interface with the inner and outer link plates on the chain and stops the chain falling off when riding choppy terrain. The key difference between XX1 and Narrow/Wide is that the latter fits a regular 104 BCD crank. Which means you don't need a special SRAM crank or XX1 spider.

One of the reasons SRAM created the bespoke spider is to accommodate the smaller XX1 chainrings (these are available in 28-tooth for steep climbing), but Race Face offers a 30-tooth by offsetting the ring slightly inboard of the cranks uising thin alloy spacers [ed note: this spacing is machined into the chainring].

Like the company's standard Single rings, the Narrow/Wide rings are machined form aluminium plate with an 'I-Beam' cross section that reduces weight and adds stiffness. The anodising wore off after a couple of rides but I've had zero issue with wear on the teeth themselves. Retention is still as good today as it was when I fitted it two months ago - in fact, I've yet to drop a chain.

You may not get the 11 gears of the full XX1 system, but in terms of retention the Race Face is comparable to XX1, it's cheaper and , since it'll bolt straight on your chainset, there's no need to make massive changes to the rest of your drivechain.

In conclusion...

For trail riding, Narrow/Wide rings and others like them look set to revolutionise chain retention because they offer one of the best features of XX1 but at a fraction of the cost. If you're going to buy a new single ring for your bike, make sure it's this one.

Offset?

The Raceface website does not specify the off-set: can you please confirm if 3mm or 6mm offset?
Asked by: denzrh
This is 6mm offset for non Boost bikes.

Will this chainring fit onto my SRAM 2200 BB30 crankset with a short spindle?

Asked by: Nathuen
Unfortunately this is only listed as compatible with Race Face's Cinch system on their chainsets so we're unable to advise compatibility with SRAM chainset components, apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Merida big trail 600 2018

Hello. Will this fit on a merida big trail 600 2018? It's on a boost hub, and some chainrings have additional offset for boost. It looks like it has normal 30t raceface on it at present but I thought I should check all the same
Asked by: Lukenbear
This chainring will not fit a boost spaced frame.

Is this chainring compatible with sram eagle 12 speed chains?

Race face website claims this chainring is compatible with 12 speed chainsets, as far as I am aware sram eagle is the only 12 speed chainset available, can you confirm this compatible please?
Asked by: Wizzom
Unfortunately this would not be suitable. We would advise using the Eagle chainring.
