At Escapa, we love quality, which is why we bring you Absolute Black. TheAbsolute Black Oval DM 3mm 148 Boost SRAM 1X12V chainring—the original and only narrow- and wide-oval BOOST 1X direct-mount chainring compatible with SRAM Absolute Black—is designed for DUB, GXP, and BB30 spindle cranksets. This chainring is designed for Boost bikes (3 mm offset). It is the highest-end oval chainring on the market, with scientifically proven performance gains.
This oval chainring with 3 mm offset converts any SRAM crank into a Boost-specific setup. SRAM Boost and non-Boost cranks are identical; the chainring itself provides all the offset.
Oval chainrings don’t produce more power; they increase your pedaling efficiency. This means they reduce the component of pedaling force that is thrust—which does not help propel the bike forward. The less force you waste, the more energy you conserve, allowing you to push harder when needed or simply reduce fatigue. This is why you can ride faster with our oval chainrings.
