Praxis 46T Direct Mount Black Wave Road

Praxis 46T Direct Mount Wave Road Chainring Black is a high-performance 1X chainring designed for road, gravel, and cyclocross riding. Engineered with the advanced Wave™ tooth profile, this chainring delivers superior chain retention, even in the toughest riding conditions like mud, dust, and rough terrain.

Developed in collaboration with Mountain Racing Products, the Wave™ design uses alternating lateral forces on each chain link to actively hold the chain in place. This goes beyond traditional narrow-wide designs that rely only on friction, offering improved security and smoother drivetrain performance. The unique tooth profile also allows mud and debris to clear efficiently, ensuring consistent performance in all environments.

The direct mount interface ensures a strong, secure connection to compatible cranksets, improving stiffness and power transfer. Additionally, the Wave™ profile distributes load across a larger surface area, reducing wear and extending the lifespan of both the chainring and chain.

Ideal for riders seeking reliability, durability, and enhanced drivetrain efficiency, this 46T chainring is perfect for fast gravel rides and aggressive road cycling.
