Wolf Tooth Elliptical 96mm BCD Chainring for Shimano XT8000 30T

Do you want More Power?

Check.
Better traction? Definitely. Less shifting? Yup. Funky uneven pedal
stroke? Not with Wolf Tooth'sPowerTrac EllipticalT (PTE) chainrings.
Our proprietary design means a slightly less ovalized ring (10%) with
less aggressive timing (112) than competitors' versions; any change to
your pedal stroke is unnoticeable for most riders, but they still
provide the POWER and TRACTION benefits inherent to oval chainrings.

It's like having two chainrings in one!

With
PowerTrac Elliptical rings, the larger-diameter section of the ring
engages with the chain at the optimal point on the downstroke, or "Power
Zone," - between 1-5 and 7-11 on a clock face - to take advantage of
your body's natural biomechanical POWER: For example, during this
section, a PTE 34t ring is equivalent to a 36t round ring. Similarly in
the "Recovery Zone" (11-1 and 5-7), the smaller section on the PTE ring
engages, maximizing EFFICIENCY in the weakest part of the pedal stroke;
here the PTE 34t ring is equivalent to a 32t round ring.

Better Traction

Additionally,
the above provides a smoother, more efficient pedal rotation, which
means better TRACTION. Steadier torque on the rear wheel means less
spinning out in the "Power Zone," while pedaling is easier during the
"Recovery Zone," so you maintain momentum.
