The SRAM Rival. Your chain for maximum performance.
The SRAM Rival chain is the heart of your drivetrain. With its innovative Flattop technology, it delivers a lighter, quieter, and more durable chain that will carry you over any distance, no matter how long. Whether on the road, gravel, or e-bike, this chain makes no compromises on precision and reliability.
Performance you can feel
Flattop technology allows for a narrower chain profile that is not only lighter but also significantly quieter. The targeted cutouts on the outer plates save weight without compromising strength. The hard-chromed finish of the inner plates provides four times the wear resistance of standard chains. This means you can ride longer, faster, and with greater safety.
Reliability on every journey
The PowerLock chain connector allows for tool-free installation and removal. You don't need any special tools to service or repair your chain. The precise construction guarantees optimal shifting performance, even under load. With the SRAM Rival, you bring professional quality to your everyday setup.
