X-Glide Imagine being able to shift smoothly at any time, no matter what. We’re talking full-power shifts. Up, down, whatever the trail demands. The benefit of the X-Glide drivetrain is simple, yet, when you think about it, incredibly impactful to the way you ride. Flawless shifting means you’ll never again compromise your speed & power in unpredictable off-road terrain. Here’s how they did it: TRUVATIV’s crank engineers threw away the old standards & developed a new chainring geometry from the ground up. They precisely paired the different-sized chainrings & redesigned where & how the chain engages with the rings. By aligning the chainring pick-up rivets to the chain pivot pin—rather than the middle of the chain link—you get double the shift opportunities. No more missed shifts, ever. X-Glide puts you in THE RIGHT GEAR, right now. ...
