Description
Conquer the trails with the Shimano SLX FC-M7000-1 chainring, engineered specifically for aggressive mountain biking and demanding trail conditions.
Bolt Circle Diameter (PCD): 96mm
The 96mm PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter) refers to the diameter of the circle formed by the centre points of the chainring’s bolt holes.
This compact PCD measurement is optimised for mountain bike applications, providing better ground clearance and improved chainline geometry for off-road riding.
1×11 Speed Single Ring Design
Purpose-built for 1x (single chainring) drivetrains, eliminating the complexity of front derailleurs while maintaining a wide gear range through the 11-speed cassette.
This design reduces weight, maintenance, and the risk of chain drops during technical terrain.
SLX-Grade Construction
As part of Shimano’s SLX groupset family, this chainring delivers trail-tested durability with materials and engineering designed to withstand the impacts, mud, and abuse of serious mountain biking.
Narrow-Wide Tooth Profile
Features alternating narrow and wide teeth that provide superior chain retention without requiring a chain guide. This design significantly reduces chain drop incidents during rough terrain, jumps, and aggressive riding.
Single Ring Optimisation
Engineered specifically for 1x drivetrains with optimised chain-line positioning that ensures smooth shifting across the entire cassette range, from climbing gears to high-speed descents.
Trail-Ready Durability
Built to handle rock strikes, root impacts, and the constant stress of mountain bike riding, featuring robust construction that maintains performance in harsh conditions.
Understanding Mountain Bike Chainrings
Mountain bike chainrings face unique challenges compared to road components.
The 96mm PCD provides better ground clearance over rocks and roots, while the single ring design eliminates the complexity of multiple chainrings.
The tooth count determines your gear range – lower tooth counts provide easier climbing ability, while higher counts offer more top-end speed for descents and flat sections.
