HOW TO MOUNT RACEFACE CINCH OVAL CHAINRING:
The chainring has a mark on the backside that you need to line up with the centre of the crank arm to achieve the main/recommended position. Once this is done use BB key to lock the lockring. If you wish to try more aggressive setup, rotate the chainring from the main position clockwise by one notch on the splines. This will rotate oval by further 22deg. We do Not recommend the second position for beginners. Before you start experimenting with the clocking of the ring, make sure you have ridden a minimum of 5 months in the main position first.
OPTIMUM CHAINRING ADJUSTMENT (OCA):
Our main/recommended clocking position is a fantastic setup for everyone. However, some more seasoned riders may like a bit more aggressive clocking position. RaceFace oval chainring allows you to change clocking position by 22deg both ways from initial setup. This is the only chainring in our line offering this adjustability.
It is ideal for 1x 9/10/11/12 system and Singlespeeds!. Oval (elliptical) chainring does not compromise the work of clutch mechanism in rear derailleur(video at the bottom). It also does not require chain tensioner when using in Singlespeed application. It is the most advanced oval chainring currently on the market.
The most advanced, Patent Pending narrow/wide tooth profile on the Market guarantee minimum of 12 months of excellent chain retention capabilities! We mean it. Always use a new chain with a new chainring.
