Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Compatibility: Ensure the chain is compatible with your SRAM 1x drivetrain and 11-speed cassette.
- Sizing: Determine the correct chain length using the manufacturer's guide or by routing the chain around the largest chainring and cassette cog without going through the rear derailleur, adding two links, and then installing the PowerLock®.
- Installation: Use a chain tool to remove the old chain and install the new chain. Use the PowerLock® connecting link included with the chain to complete the circuit.
- Care:
- Clean the chain regularly using a chain cleaner and brush.
- Lubricate the chain with a bicycle chain lubricant.
- Inspect the chain for wear and replace it when necessary using a chain wear indicator tool.
*Important:* Proper chain length is critical for optimal shifting and drivetrain performance. Incorrect length can lead to poor shifting or damage to components.
