This chainring works fine with my SRAM 1x drivetrain but was a pain to install on my Force hidden- bolt crankset. The internet offers how-to tips on removing and re-installing the spider, but the process isnt self-evident if youre used to working with traditional bolt-on chainrings. SRAMs packaging includes no instructions.
Both chainrings on the 2010 cross bike were toast, so installed this to convert to a 1X. Outstanding! Never drops off the chainring from 10 to 32 tooth cogs, ever. Love the 1X systems, for cross or gravel-grinder it's the tool of choice.
I run a 1 x 9 on a city bike works great!
