96 mm BCD Chainrings for Shimano XT M8000 and SLX M7000

Looking for a 1X chainring for your Shimano XT, SLX or Deore crankset with the proven chain retention of our Drop-Stop® chainrings? Wolf Tooth has what you need in the form of a beautifully machined asymmetrical 96 mm BCD that provides the ideal 1X chainline of 49mm.

NOTE: The 28T and 26T sizes are available mount to the inner 64 BCD mounting position on these cranksets.

Compatibility

• These rings fit on the Shimano XT M8000, SLX M7000, Deore M6000, or  FC M5100 1x or 2x cranksets 
• Not compatible with Deore triple (3x) cranksets
• If using a 9-speed drivetrain use a 10-speed chain (shifts and works well on a 9-speed drivetrain and fits the ring tighter for better chain retention).
• Provide a great chainline on most Boost bikes.  See this explanation for details.
• Drop-Stop A models will reduce the chainline (inward towards the frame) from the Shimano specified chainline for the crankset: 26T-28T = -3mm, 30T-34T = -2mm, and 36T-38T = -1mm
• Drop-Stop ST models will have the same chainline as the Shimano specified chainline
• 10mm bolts are optimized for mounting this ring

  

Recommendations

• If you plan to ride in very muddy conditions, we recommend a chainguide or chainkeeper in addition to a clutch-type rear derailleur. Without these precautions, you may experience chaindrops and/or chainsuck.
