Product Details

Overview & Technology

SRAM Red22 50T X-Glide outer chainring (Part #: 11.6218.010.000, Model ID: CR-XGLD-110-A1) is a precision-machined aluminium 50-tooth outer ring built for 11-speed Red22 compact cranksets. Engineered to the 110mm 5-bolt BCD standard for 34/50 compatibility, the ring pairs a lightweight construction with SRAM's X-Glide tooth profiling to optimize shifting under load. The ring's machined aluminium body and anodized grey finish balance low weight (approx. 0.45 lb / 204 g shipped) with durability for road riding. X-Glide ramps and tooth profiles are tuned for crisp, consistent front shifts and quiet chain retention when paired with an 11-speed chain and Red22 front derailleur.

Key Features & Benefits

Precision shifting and race-ready performance: X-Glide tooth geometry accelerates chain movement between rings for faster front shifts and fewer missed shifts during hard efforts. The 50-tooth outer profile is optimized for compact 34/50 combinations to deliver an efficient top-end gear range. Main construction and benefits include:• Machined aluminium construction — light and stiff for responsive power transfer. • 110mm BCD, 5-bolt fit — direct swap for compatible compact cranks. • SRAM X-Glide ramps and profiling — engineered for 11-speed chain widths and clean front shifts. • Anodized grey finish — corrosion resistance and OEM appearance on Red22 systems.

Fit, Compatibility & Installation

This is an outer chainring for 11-speed SRAM Red22 compact setups (34/50). It fits cranks with a 110mm 5-bolt BCD and is intended as the 50T outer partner in a 34/50 chainring combo. Before ordering, confirm your crank spider BCD, bolt circle, and whether your crank uses removable outer rings (some integrated designs require specific OEM parts). Installation is standard for 5-bolt rings: use the correct torque for chainring bolts (check your crank manufacturer's spec), ensure chainline is correct, and pair with an 11-speed chain and Red22 front derailleur for best results. If swapping from a non-SRAM setup, test shifting under load and adjust derailleur height and limit screws as needed.

Who This Chainring Is For

Ideal for road riders, racers and enthusiasts running SRAM Red22 compact crank arms who want a lightweight, race-focused outer ring that restores OEM shifting performance. This is the go-to replacement for riders who demand crisp front shifts and factory-level ramping on 11-speed systems. Whether you're refreshing a worn ring, upgrading to genuine SRAM X-Glide tech, or rebuilding a compact crankset after a crash, this ring delivers dependable, high-performance shifting for training and racing alike.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this chainring compatible with 10-speed or 12-speed chains?

This ring is optimized for 11-speed chains and SRAM X-Glide profiling. It may work with some 10-speed chains but shifting performance can be compromised. It is not recommended for 12-speed systems because chain widths and ramping geometry differ.

Will this fit my crankset?

It fits road cranksets that use a 110mm 5-bolt BCD and accept a removable 50T outer ring in a 34/50 compact configuration. Check your crank's BCD and mounting design; integrated or proprietary outer rings may require OEM-specific parts.

Do I need SRAM chainring bolts or specific torque settings?

Use quality chainring bolts and follow your crank manufacturer's torque specs to avoid stripping or loosening. SRAM recommends using compatible bolts and a torque wrench for consistent clamping and safe operation.

Can I replace just the outer ring or should I replace both rings?

You can replace just the outer ring if the inner 34T is in good shape and compatible with X-Glide engagement. However, for optimal shifting it's common to replace both rings together if either shows wear, mismatched tooth profiles, or if you switch chain speed compatibility.

How durable is the aluminium construction for heavy use?

The machined aluminium offers an excellent balance of weight and durability for road use. It will resist normal wear and impacts, but like any aluminium ring it will eventually show tooth wear under high-mileage or aggressive conditions—regular inspection is recommended.

Does the ring include ramps and pins for shifting?

Yes — SRAM X-Glide outer rings feature integrated ramps and tooth profiling designed to work with 11-speed chains and Red22 front derailleurs to facilitate smooth chain movement during front shifts.

Buying Guide

When buying a replacement outer chainring, match the bolt circle diameter (110mm 5-bolt), tooth count (50T for a compact 34/50 set), and speed compatibility (11-speed here). Choose genuine SRAM X-Glide rings to retain factory shift ramping and tooth profiling—mixing different brands or speed ratings often reduces front shift quality. Consider material and weight: machined aluminium offers a race-focused balance of low mass and stiffness for road riders. If you ride in wet or gritty conditions, inspect teeth regularly and replace rings in pairs for the smoothest shifting over the long term.
