Shimano SLX M7100 chainring .

The chainring for Shimano SLX M7100 is made with a new tooth profile that holds the chain well, even if there is no chain guide or front derailleur.

It can be used for all frame standards, so you use the same chainring whether you have a frame with boost or a standard frame.

It only fits Shimano's 12-speed systems, and cannot be used with previous versions of Shimano SLX.

The technology in the chainring is similar to that used in both XT. However, the choice of material is different, which makes the chainring heavier and the precision is not quite as good as it is in the XT M8100.

However, not everyone can feel the difference, precisely because the technology is so well developed.

Note that it is a 30t blade and not a 32t as shown in the picture.
