The SRAM Red Flattop CN-RED-E1 12/13-speed chain took the absolute ceiling of drivetrain performance and raised it. With zero compromises. SRAM's proprietary HollowPin architecture delivers strength that exceeds solid pins, while precision cutouts in both the inner and outer plates shave a critical 13g of rotating mass from the previous generation. Is it possible to be lighter, faster, and more durable all at once? The new SRAM Red chain proves it is.
