Description
The SRAM Force E1 Flattop Chain is built for endurance, speed, and precision, offering compatibility with both 12-speed road and 13-speed gravel (XPLR) drivetrains. Featuring SRAM’s signature Flattop technology, it delivers a quieter, smoother ride while allowing a narrower chain profile that improves strength and longevity. This chain is engineered for countless shifts and long-distance performance, making it ideal for riders who demand reliability across varied terrain and conditions. It’s available in both 114- and 126-link lengths to suit a wide range of setups.
Constructed with chrome-hardened inner link plates and rollers, the Force E1 chain minimizes wear for an extended lifespan. Weight-saving cutouts in both the inner and outer plates help reduce rotational mass without compromising durability. The chain includes a Flattop PowerLock connector for easy, secure installation and features a premium finish in Silver or Purple with PVD coating for added corrosion resistance. It’s also e-bike approved, ensuring strength under higher torque loads.
