At Escapa, we’ve selected the best Shimano MTB chainrings for you.
The Shimano XT M8100 12V chainring features Direct Mount technology and is designed to pair with the FC-M8100/8120/8130 Deore XT cranksets. With its special Dynamic-Chain-Mount+ design, it guides the CN-M8100 chain securely and with low vibration, even on rough trails. When paired with the Hyperglide+ chain, these chainrings are compatible with Standard, Boost, and SuperBoost Plus rear hubs.
The Shimano XT M8100 12-speed chainrings are secured to the crank arm with a lockring, which is held in place by the Shimano bottom bracket tool. For easier handling of the slim lockring, Shimano also offers a special installation tool. The chainrings are available in 28-36 teeth.
NOTE: Shimano recommends using the Deore XT 12-speed chainrings only in combination with Shimano M8100 drivetrain components.
