Product description
The UFO racing chain SRAM AXS Road 12-speed offers an optimized service life of 600 km and maintains a high level of efficiency under all conditions.
The efficiency saving starts at 25% (UFO Force vs. Stock Force 12-speed AXS chain).
The chain is optimized by hand in Denmark and includes SRAM Quick Link for easy installation/removal.
Riding in wet conditions shortens the life of the optimization.
Compatibility: SRAM 12-speed AXS Force and Red
Chain length: 114 links
Speed: 12-speed
Discipline: Road
NB: The optimized chain is an original SRAM Force flattop chain.
Installing your new optimized chain is no different from installing any other chain.
Note that the chain is covered with Teflon® powder, which may scatter when removed from the bag. Use the gloves provided and cover the ground when installing the Ceramicspeed UFO Racing Chain. Always connect the chain with the link provided. We recommend not reusing the connecting link. A chain tool is required to install your chain. Shorten the chain at the optimum length.
When cutting the chain with the chain tool, remember that the cut must be made so that the chain ends are both inside plates. Attach the two parts of the connecting link at the point where the link rivet aligns with the hole in the connecting plate and then pull on the chain to activate the lock.
Within 600 km, do not wash the chain before the mileage is exceeded to get all the benefits of the Ceramicspeed UFO racing chain , but if your chain needs to be cleaned, use a dry cloth or soft brush and carefully remove the dirt from the chain. When removing the chain for maintenance or cleaning, remember to refit it in the same direction as before. A mild shower, where the chain has not been exposed to water for more than a few minutes, should not affect the chain's performance characteristics.
For light showers, we recommend applying UFO Drip Chain Coating after wiping off the excess Teflon powder with a dry cloth if there is any left on the chain. Allow the UFO Drip Chain Coating to dry before riding.
In case of heavy showers, you should cover your chain with a protective grease in addition to the UFO treatment. This has a slight effect on the wadding savings, but protects the chain and improves your performance at the same time.
After 600 km, the chain can be serviced, bearing in mind that traces of the optimization will still remain in the chain. When using the UFO drip chain coating after 600 km, follow the instructions on the bottle. Note that the enormous 2 to 5 watt wadding saving is achieved within the first interval of 600 km / 370 miles and decreases slightly after the end of the UFO treatment.
