The dedicated 1x system and 13 speeds make it effective, the 9-tooth sprocket allows for the birth of a complete range of gear ratios with short evenly spaced shifts and well-maintained cadence levels.
Technology, design and material have been chosen to satisfy the specific performance needs of all-road and gravel fans, the combination of rapid precise, reliable, shifting together with high chain security, lightness, durability and strength mean it truly deserves its place in the all-road arena.
