The OneUp guide extends chainring life by limiting the chains side-to-side movement reducing the tooth wear and totally preventing the chain from derailing. But when racing an Enduro a dropped chain can cost you the podium, which is why almost every EWS pro runs both a chain guide and narrow wide chainring.Īs a Narrow Wide ring wears, over time the teeth thin and loose their chain retention ability, leading to more dropped chains.
