Shimano SLX 3x9s Chainring

The Shimano SLX 3x9s chainring is a steel replacement part for a crankset with 3 chainrings, designed for riders who need to replace a worn chainring or change their bike's gearing. Check the BCD of 64 mm with 4-bolt mounting, which must match the crankset. It has 22 teeth and is compatible with SLX FC-M667, FC-M665, FC-M660 and DEORE FC-M627, FC-M617, DEORE LX FC-T661 cranksets.

The chainring is currently available only in the 22-tooth version, so the tooth count is already fixed: confirm that it suits your desired gearing. The chainring is specified for 9/10-speed drivetrains with 3/2-speed front configurations, so check your bike's number of speeds before buying.

Founded in 1921 in Sakai, Japan, by Shozaburo Shimano, Shimano is still based in the same city today. For cyclists, it makes drivetrains, brakes, wheels, pedals and cycling shoes. Its history in bicycle components began with the production of freewheels in 1922.
