The YBEKI Pro Chainring is a road-cycle chainring engineered for secure chain retention and durable UK road performance. Confidence on steep climbs and in wet weather keeps rides focused rather than interrupted. Is it the right upgrade for riders who demand reliability and low maintenance?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Retention Performance: Narrow-wide tooth profile with alternating 7.3mm/6.8mm teeth reduces chain drops by 92% and keeps the chain stable on steep climbs.
- • Best for: Road riders running 1x setups, racers and all-weather commuters who want fewer chain interruptions.
- • Not ideal for: Riders who use 2x drivetrains or require inner ring compatibility for compact gearing.
Precision-machined 7075-T6 aluminium meets ISO 13041 standards. Narrow-wide teeth and DuraLock coating improve retention and corrosion resistance for UK roads.
Fewer Chain Drops – thanks to Narrow-Wide Chain Retention System
Alternating 7.3mm and 6.8mm tooth profiles reduce chain drops by 92%, while dynamic chamfer edges enable 45% faster chain engagement; extended tooth tips were tested to hold the chain on climbs above 40 degrees.
Greater confidence on single-ring setups, with fewer mid-ride chain fixes and more reliable power transfer when climbing or accelerating.
Built to Resist UK Conditions – with aircraft-grade 7075-T6 aluminium and DuraLock coating
7075-T6 aluminium is precision-machined on a 5-axis CNC to ±0.01mm tooth tolerance and offers 572MPa tensile strength; military hard-anodised surface (HV800) survives 200 hours of salt spray testing and a patent-pending DuraLock coating resists road salt.
Lower corrosion risk and reduced maintenance for riders who tackle wet, salty roads, keeping the drivetrain reliable for longer.
Lightweight, Stiff Design – with 3D hollow structure and asymmetric reinforcement
A 3D hollow structure reduces mass relative to steel equivalents by 280g, asymmetric reinforcement ribs deliver 155Nm/deg stiffness, and mirror-polished teeth measure 0.09μ friction that saves about 15W at 90rpm.
Improved acceleration and pedalling efficiency without sacrificing stiffness, useful for riders who want a responsive feel under power.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the chainring compatible with Shimano and SRAM groupsets?
A: Yes. Compatibility is listed for Shimano 105/Ultegra and SRAM Force, and the ring supports 8–12 speed drivetrains.
Q: How resistant is the chainring to corrosion from UK road salt?
A: The chainring uses a military hard-anodised surface (HV800) that survives 200 hours of salt spray testing and a patent-pending DuraLock coating designed to resist UK road salt.
Q: What warranty and support are available in the UK?
A: A 24-month crack warranty is provided, with next-day replacement available from a Leeds warehouse and UK-based tech support Monday to Friday, 9am–9pm.
🏆 Our Verdict
Ideal for riders who favour single-ring setups and demand dependable chain retention in British conditions. Narrow-wide teeth combined with 7075-T6 construction, military anodising and DuraLock coating deliver durability, low maintenance and measurable efficiency gains. Strong UK warranty and next-day replacement support make it a sensible long-term choice for frequent road riders.
