Narrow Wide 5-Bolt Chainring

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

“I swapped this onto a trail build that sees a mix of rocky climbs and fast descents, and it’s been solid—no dropped chains even on rough sections. It feels stiff under load but still keeps things light for longer rides.”

We head out on rough singletrack knowing dropped chains can ruin the rhythm, and the Race Face Narrow Wide Chainring keeps every pedal stroke engaged when the trail gets unpredictable. Race Face builds this chainring for riders who push into technical terrain, where consistency matters more than anything.

Machined from durable 7075 aluminum, it balances strength with a weight that still feels responsive on climbs. The narrow-wide tooth profile holds the chain in place through chatter and hard efforts, giving us confidence to focus on the line instead of the drivetrain.
