Pass Quest 1x Chainring

Pass Quest 1x Chainring

Erstellt: 26. September 2026

Der Rezensent erwähnt das Pass Quest 1x Kettenblatt als Teil eines Hill-Climb-Aufbaus, speziell ein 34-Zahn-Direct-Mount-Kettenblatt mit 3 mm Offset, das mit einem Riot/Lexon Carbon-Kurbelsatz kombiniert wird. Er merkt an, dass es perfekt für Hill-Climb-Rennen ist, liefert jedoch keine unabhängigen Gewichts- oder Leistungsdaten nur für das Kettenblatt.

KI-Zusammenfassung

Pros

  • Perfekt für Hill-Climb-Rennen aufgrund der 34-Zahn-Größe und des 3-mm-Offsets
  • Passt gut zur Cinch-Schnittstelle des Riot/Lexon Carbon-Kurbelsatzes
