If you're a 1X CX, gravel or road cyclist and you can't afford to drop a chain, the Wolf Tooth GnarWolf® braze-on chain guide is for you. Designed specifically around wide/narrow 1x chainrings, the GnarWolf will keep your chain glued to your chainring in the toughest, muddiest conditions. No other CX chain guide is as stiff or as easy to adjust as the GnarWolf.
Patented infinite chainline adjustment between 45 mm and 51 mm via an elliptical expanding mandrel. No shims required.
Infinite vertical adjustment between 34 and 46 teeth for round and oval chainrings
Loosen one screw to flip the guide out of the way for easy chain removal without losing any of the guide settings
All adjustments made with a common 4 mm hex key
Designed for the rigours of the muddiest CX course or roughest gravel riding, Wolf Tooth engineers have made this guide extremely stiff and strong whilst keeping it lightweight at 44 g.
The specific shape of the guide is optimised for use with elliptical/oval and round chainrings
Installation takes just minutes: no need to remove your cranks
