SRAM Rival E1 AXS Flattop Chain | 12/13-Speed | 126 Links | Silver
SRAM Rival E1 AXS Flattop Chain | 12/13-Speed | 126 Links
Quiet, durable, and engineered for SRAM’s latest AXS road and XPLR drivetrains.
The SRAM Rival E1 AXS Flattop Chain is designed for modern SRAM 12-speed road and 13-speed XPLR AXS drop-bar drivetrains. Its distinctive Flattop construction allows SRAM to use a narrower chain profile while maintaining excellent strength, durability, and smooth drivetrain operation.
Hard Chrome-plated inner link plates help reduce wear and extend service life, while strategically placed cutouts in the outer plates reduce weight without compromising performance. The result is a chain that delivers quiet running, precise shifting, and dependable durability for road, gravel, all-road, and endurance riding.
The chain includes a matching SRAM Flattop PowerLock connector for installation.
