Wolf Tooth Components, LLC has introduced a revolutionary new compact chain guide, the GnarWolf. Available now for ISCG-05, and coming soon in high direct mount and S3/E-type mount.
According to Wolf Tooth founder Mike Pfeiffer: “We have been discussing a compact chain guide product for a couple of years but we did not want to introduce another me-too product. We did a lot of development and testing and we are now ready to deliver something revolutionary in both ease of use and performance”.
While a chain guide is not needed for most XC and trail riding with a Wolf Tooth wide/narrow chainring, gravity riders, and competitors who cannot afford any risk of a chain drop or ride often in muddy conditions are often adding a compact guide for increased chain security.
GnarWolf Features:
- No shims needed for chainline adjustment. Expanding elliptical mandrel system allows perfect chainline alignment and takes just seconds to set. This is the fastest and easiest chain guide to setup.
- More rigid than competing products. A flexible chain guide simply cannot effectively guide the chain.
- Independent adjustment of height and chainline with cage pivot for chain removal. All adjustments made quickly with 4mm hex key.
- Optimized for use with elliptical/oval chainrings.
- Accommodates chainline from approximately 48 mm to 54 mm for use with standard and Boost bikes.
- Easy installation without removing crank arms.
- Patent pending design.
- Customized Wolf Tooth bolt colour options.
- CNC machined 7075-T6 aluminium with stainless steel hardware.
- Designed and made in Savage, MN USA
