Make Your Shimano Crank Look Incredible
Featuring exactly the same excellent oval shape as rest of their oval chainring portfolio here is the premium quality absoluteBLACK Shimano XTR M9100 compatible Direct Mount 1X Oval traction chainring. It's designed for Shimano XTR M9100 and M9120 cranks ONLY and is a sure-fire way to make your Shimano crank look absolutely incredible.

Compatible Only With CN-M9100 Chains
Being a Direct Mount chainring you're advised to use the original lockring to mount it on your bike crank. For best results you should always use a new chain when installing a new chainring. Due to different thickness of the teeth this particular chainring will ONLY WORK with a CN-M9100 chain (sold separately). If you want to go further, pedal better, and increase endurance GO OVAL.

About Oval Chainrings
OVAL chainrings work because a rider does not produce power evenly through a pedal stroke. While some cyclists overcome this through working on pedalling technique with their round one, OVAL rings negate the need for the precision in this technique as they maximize the part of the stroke where power is produced and minimize resistance where it isn't. OVAL rings make the spin cycle smoother and are easier on legs while climbing. Believe it (or not), but a round chainring doesn't transfer torque to your rear wheel as smoothly as an OVAL one either. Your stroke will actually feel more "round" with an OVAL shape than with a round chainring. These chainrings also help you to recover after knee injuries as pedalling becomes smoother and less exhausting. Riding out of saddle on the uphill will become more pleasant too.
