Ultimate Chain Retention
The Wolf Tooth GnarWolf Chainguide rev2 is designed for maximum chain retention for mountain biking, extreme gravel, and particularly rough CX races. It is compatible with most bikes using 1x drivetrains that have an ISCG-05 mount and round and oval chainring sizes 28-34T.
Simple Adjustability
The base of the GnarWolf allows for the vertical adjustment necessary for differing chainring sizes, while the GuideLock Quick Adjustment System moves the chainguide head to accommodate chainlines from 45-51mm. Adjusting the GuideLock Quick Adjustment System requires just a 4mm hex to operate an expanding elliptical mandrel to move the head securely into place without the use of shims.
We believe in your right to be able to fix your components. Crashes happen, parts get misplaced, things go bump in the night. All individual pieces of GnarWolf Chainguide are available individually as replacement parts, just like other Wolf Tooth components that have multiple pieces.
100% user serviceable
Service for the GnarWolf Chainguide is easy and can be done at home. A 4mm hex key is the only tool required for installation and adjustment.
Replacement Parts Available
Each of the eight components of the GnarWolf Chainguide can be purchased individually. If something breaks in a crash, save money by replacing just the affected part instead of an entire assembly.
