Shimano SLX M7000 Chainring

This chainring is specifically designed for 11-speed single-ring setups. As long as your crankset uses a 96mm BCD asymmetric bolt pattern, it will integrate seamlessly with your existing drivetrain.

The asymmetric bolt pattern is engineered to optimize power transfer by aligning the ring with the areas of highest torque during your pedal stroke. This design improves efficiency and reduces stress on the crank arms.

No, this chainring is optimized specifically for 11-speed chains. Using it with a 10-speed or 12-speed chain may result in poor shifting performance, increased wear, or potential chain drops.

The blend of aluminum and carbon provides a strategic balance between durability and weight. The aluminum ensures the teeth remain robust under high tension, while the carbon elements help keep the overall weight low without sacrificing structural integrity.

Yes, the tooth profile is specifically shaped to improve chain retention. It is designed to hold the chain securely in place, which provides more reliable performance when riding over technical, rough terrain.
