Carbon-Ti has added more options for upgrading your 1x and 2x road cranksets with their carbon fiber-spidered chainrings, starting with an all-new X-SingleCarbon Road for 1x aero setups.
Shown above, the X-SingleCarbon Road comes in 48/50/52/54/56 tooth options using a narrow-wide tooth profile for chain retention. The teeth are CNC machined from aluminum, then anodized, and bonded to a carbon fiber spider. The new versions add options for the latest Shimano and SRAM 12-speed cranksets.
For normal double chainring setups, two new X-CarboRing X-AXS combos add compatibility with SRAM AXS 12-speed cranksets. New 54/41 and 52/39 tooth combos are designed to work exclusively with the SRAM Red E1 front derailleur and its dedicated adapter.
Got a different crankset? They’re also available for cranksets and power meters with 110 mm BCD (4- and 5-arm) and 107 mm BCD.
Wanna ride like the pros? There’s also a new X-CarbonRing EVO 55/38 chainring combo available for 110mm BCD (5-arm) and SRM Origin setups. They say it’s the gear combo that’s won the last two Tour de France races, so…
No need for metal chainring teeth? Full carbon is the only way? Then the new X-AeroRing options for Shimano Dura-Ace DA9200 and SRM Origin should make you happy. They’re 1x only, and designed for TT and Triathlon applications with tooth counts ranging from 58 up to 68. They also make an X-Derailleur Adapter to raise your front derailleur (or, more likely, a chain guide) when using these oversized chainrings.
Carbon-Ti UDH Derailleur Hanger Replacements
Bling out your direct-mount bike when running anything but SRAM’s T-Type derailleurs with these two new options. For Shimano derailleurs, the X-Hanger DM DA9200 (left) lets you directly mount compatible Shimano derailleurs to a UDH frame, no mini-link required. Available in six anodized colors. Weight is 31g.
For everything else, their X-Hanger UDH (right) fits UDH frames and works with any standard road, mountain, triathlon, or gravel bike derailleur. And it comes in black, but hardware has six color options. Weight is 29.5g.
Campaganolo / Fulcrum AFS Brake Rotors
Carbon-Ti’s X-Rotor SteelCarbon 3 and X-Rotor Aero series are now available in AFS-specific versions for Campagnolo and Fulcrum hubs. They are built the same as their Center Lock rotors, but are “dimensionally optimized for the AFS standard”.
What’s AFS? It’s Campagnolo’s “Axial Fixing System” and simply refers to a slightly different design for the lock rings themselves. Otherwise, they’re essentially a Center Lock rotor, and Campy/Fulcrum AFS hubs come with AFS lock rings. Or, you can updgrade to these Carbon-Ti ones and get rotors with carbon carriers and titanium AFS-compatible lock rings. Available in 140/160/180mm diameters.
