The all-new SRAM RED® chain was redeveloped from the ground up. The unique link shape allows the chain to be narrower and lighter while increasing strength and providing more space between the outer plates of the chain and the cogs on either side. Result: a quieter chain with faster, more precise shifts.

• Flattop™ technology enables a narrower chain with quieter operation and increased strength and durability
• Hard Chrome™ plated inner link plates and rollers for reduced wear and prolonged life.
• HollowPin™ construction for increased strength and efficiency
• Requires new Flattop™ Powerlock™

Silca Hot Melt Chain Waxing

Hot melt wax is the ultimate in chain maintenance.  Factory grease is very sticky and attracts dust and grim that shortens chain life.  Once the factory grease is stripped clean of the chain and replaced with hot melt wax you're left with an incredibly clean chain that will last up to 25,000km.

Hot melt chain waxing saves money on chains and cassettes, keeps your bike cleaner and looking amazing and is also 8w faster!
