PREMIUM OVAL ROAD 110/5 BCD CHAINRING FOR SRAM
The Premium Sram compatible Oval chainrings (110/5bcd) are designed specifically for Sram cranks that have 1 hidden chainring bolt behind the crank arm like Sram Red, Red eTap, Red22, Force1, Force22, Rival, Rival1 and more. These are finest shift-able oval chainrings on the market.
Absolute Black oval road chainrings deliver power more smoothly to your rear wheel. This means you are better able to generate and maintain, constant cadence. Because oval chainrings reduce the peak loads on knee joints, riders using them get less stress on the joints (knees) and therefore are able to keep certain level of effort for longer. This results in higher average speed. The compound effect of switching to oval chainrings; the relaxed legs, added climbing ability and reduction of cramp means your overall enjoyment of the ride is enhanced.
ADVANTAGES OF ABSOLUTE BLACK OVAL CHAINRINGS:
One of a kind special oval shape that helps you climb easier and faster (Patent Pending)
Over 15% stiffer than Rotor Qrings due to thicker, 5mm construction
Bespoke AbsoluteBlack 6 point ramp and recess shifting design shifts better than any other brand and model of oval chainring
You will not "feel" the oval shape while pedaling
Your pedaling action will feel smoother
Helps reduce stress on knees and helping your legs remain fresher for longer
You will be able to maintain better cadence while climbing
Reduces possibility of leg cramps
You will reduce chainring/cog shifts by at least 15%

HOW TO ADJUST FRONT DERAILLEUR WITH ABSOLUTEBLACK ROAD OVAL CHAINRINGS
To proceed with the adjustment you will need 2mm and 5mm allen keys.
Trouble shooting:
If your derailleur over shifts the chain when moving from small ring to the big ring, it means your "gap" is greater than 2mm when chain is on big chainring (see video). You may need to reduce the gap. Your front derailleur may also be too high compared to what is advised on the video. Last thing to check is if your cage is parallel to the big chainring face.
If your front derailleur is hesitating to shift from small to the big ring then two issues may be present. The "gap" may be too small (It has to be 2mm - SEE VIDEO) or your cage is not parallel to the big chainring face.
HOW TO MOUNT SRAM 110/5 OVAL CHAINRING:
First, you need to remove your crank from your bike.
Once removed, unscrew 5 bolts that hold two chainrings together.
Remove both original rings. If you have a removable spider on the crank - remove the spider by unscrewing 3x T25 torx bolts before mounting new chainrings.
Locate new oval inner chainring with the small hole "timing indicator" positioned behind the crank arm. The bolt holes on the small chainring are recessed – so the nut heads will sit flush with the surface of the chainring - these recesses should face you when mounting the bolts.
Absolute Black outer chainring has a specific hole indicator - position the outer ring to line up that hole with the crank arm.
Reuse 4 original bolts that came with the crank and use our (provided) bolt for the hidden bolt hole when mounting both inner and outer oval rings(If you have carbon crank with integrated spider, reuse all 5 original bolts).
If you are only switching the inner chainring to oval - use all original bolts that came with your crank. Tighten all 5 bolts with force of about 5-7Nm. Mount your crank back to the bike. You may also need to adjust the front derailleur upwards by 2-3mm.
