The Shimano XTR, XT, and SLX 12spd Hyperglide+ chains works differently than other products on the market. To address the new design, Wolf Tooth engineers developed a completely new tooth profile that provides optimal chain retention and durability when used with Hyperglide+.
This chainring is compatible with Shimano XTR M9130, XT M8130, SLX M7130, and Deore M6130 series 12 speed cranksets using a Shimano 12-speed Hyperglide+ chain.
If you plan to ride in very muddy conditions, Wolf Tooth recommends a chainguide or chainkeeper in addition to a clutch-type rear derailleur. Without these precautions, you may experience chaindrops and/or chainsuck.
