Sram PowerLock 12Speed Flattop
The Vital Link.
Precision is the heart of the Sram AXS ecosystem, and the PowerLock D1 Flattop Connector is the only way to securely join your high-performance 12Speed chain. Specifically engineered for the unique flat-top geometry of RED, Force, and Rival eTap AXS road chains. This connector ensures a seamless, high-strength bond that matches the exact profile of your drivetrain.
Whether you are performing routine maintenance or outfitting a new Winspace SLC 5.0, this PowerLock ensures that your shifting remains silent, snappy, and secure under the most intense loads.
Why the Flattop PowerLock is Non-Negotiable:
-
Flattop™ Specific Geometry: Designed exclusively for the narrower, flat-topped architecture of Sram 12Speed systems. Using a standard 12Speed link on a Flattop chain will compromise shifting and safety.
-
Tool-Free Installation: Engineered for a secure "click-fit" connection that can be installed by hand (though a set of master link pliers is recommended for removal).
-
Maximum Strength: Built with the same rigorous standards as Sram’s world-class racing chains, providing a connection that is as strong as the rest of the links.
-
Corrosion Resistance: Features a high-quality nickel finish to resist the elements and maintain smooth operation over thousands of kilometers.

The Alegro Perspective: In the workshop, we call this "cheap insurance." Never try to reuse a 12Speed PowerLock; once the locking tabs are engaged, they are designed to stay that way. Always keep one tucked in your saddlebag. Sometimes it’s the difference between a 2min roadside fix and a long walk home.
Secure. Seamless. Silent. The only link for your Sram 12Speed Flattop drivetrain.
