ROTOR MAKES Q RINGS FOR SRAM AXS AND SHIMANO GRX

ROTOR makes Q RINGS compatible with AXS and GRX

In a move to match pace with evolving trends in drivetrain components, ROTOR Bike Components has expanded its range of chainrings to be even more compatible with SRAM AXS and Shimano GRX.
New Q RINGS combinations for Shimano GRX, and a new 50/37 for SRAM RED and Force eTap AXS give users 12.5 percent ovality for taking on the tough terrain that’s currently attracting cyclists. ROTOR has also honored individual preferences with an AXS-compatible 50/37 round chainring as well.

“Gravel riding has evolved in a short time with new demands for gearing because riders have become more daring with their route choices”, said Julio Madrigal, Product Manager for ROTOR. “At the same time road gearing has also been reimagined. We’ve chosen to add to our existing range of chainrings for both SRAM and Shimano to meet these new demands and concepts”.

Q RINGS for SRAM AXS

Q RINGS options have never been better because drivetrain innovations have never been more diverse. When SRAM upended standard chainring sizes with its RED eTap AXS 12-speed groupset, ROTOR pivoted quickly on the concept and created compatible Q RINGS. 50/37 and 48/35 Q RINGS combinations with either BCD 110×4 or BCD 107×4 are new standards for SRAM loyalists who want nonstandard chainrings.

Round rings For SRAM AXS

Once SRAM shattered assumptions of what road gearing is (or was), ROTOR reacted with chainrings designed for the new gear range. SRAM RED and Force eTap AXS users already have a 48/35 round chainring option, now they have 50/37 as well. As long as drivetrain components keep evolving, ROTOR will continue to make sure that every user has the option to ride with chainrings oriented around his or her pedaling preference, whether it be oval or round.
