Retours sur les isolats
Élimine les bruits parasites indésirables de la transmission en descente, pour une conduite silencieuse qui inspire confiance et procure la sensation de rouler sans chaîne.
Sensibilité et ressenti de suspension améliorés
Avec moins de retour d’information de la transmission, vous prendrez davantage conscience des mouvements de la suspension de votre vélo, tout en gagnant en adhérence et en confiance.
Moins de fatigue pour le cycliste
En isolant le cycliste des vibrations transmises par la transmission, vous ressentirez moins de fatigue au bas d'une descente, ce qui vous permettra de rouler à votre maximum plus longtemps.
Comment ça marche ?
Les chaînes ont une masse importante. Cette masse non maîtrisée est libre de fouetter, provoquant des retours parasites et du bruit. Nous pensons qu'elle joue un rôle plus important dans les caractéristiques de conduite indésirables que les autres sources de retours parasites de la transmission.
Les ressorts du Chain Damper absorbent l'énergie de la chaîne, rendant la conduite plus fluide.<p><p>Le Chain Damper isole le pilote des retours parasites de la transmission causés par le fouettement de la chaîne lors de nos descentes. En maîtrisant la chaîne, le pilote peut mieux ressentir les subtilités du fonctionnement de la suspension.<p>

Anneaux durables
Les plateaux Chain Damper Chain Rings présentent une finition naturelle saisissante due à la réaction chimique qui se produit lors de l'anodisation dure de l'aluminium T6-7075. Ce procédé de type III ajoute un revêtement nettement plus épais et plus résistant par rapport à l'anodisation standard de « type II », mais limite le choix de couleur à une finition « naturelle » ou noire.

Entretien simple
Le Chain Damper a été conçu pour durer tout un hiver britannique, afin que vous n'ayez pas à l'entretenir souvent. Il est doté d'un triple joint d'étanchéité et son corps présente une conception en « labyrinthe » pour minimiser toute infiltration d'eau et de saleté.
Lorsque vous devrez entretenir votre Chain Damper, vous n'aurez besoin que d'une clé Allen de 3 mm et d'un peu de graisse. Vous ne nous croyez pas ? Consultez le guide d'entretien ici.

Sans grincements
En intégrant directement la chaîneuse au Chain Damper, nous avons obtenu une conception incroyablement rigide et sans grincements. L’interface du pédalier est intégrée de manière fluide à la plaque avant du damper, ce qui nous permet de créer le meilleur produit possible sans être limités par la conception traditionnelle des chaîneses BCD. Cette conception garantit une durabilité et des performances maximales en éliminant tout bruit ou jeu de flexion inutile.
Easy to fit, looks great and makes my bike eerily quiet and settled. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for the next level in performance on your rig.
I bought the Chain Damper and my bike which had a noticeable pedal feedback changed completely! As I use flat pedals I constantly had to repositionate my feet, now the ridding feels calmer with a lot of composure and less noisier. There weirdest thing is the pedaling gap that I was not used to in my MTB, only in my BMX equipe with a coaster, the feeling is the same. For high speed downhills and really rough terrain is pretty perfect!
The chain damper is a pro upgrade for my Evil Insurgent's Delta suspension. Like silk...
Great product for DH. Initally I had a strange feeling putting pressure on the pedals with the hard springs in the damper but then after only a few rides the damper came to life and it feelt butter smooth. Had some problems with fitting but the awesome customer support helped out asap. The chain damper delivers as intended. üá∏üá™
Excellent I made a mistake by ordering the wrong one and they were very prompt and change in this for me and very helpful. Thank you team.
Game changer! A great update for your bike.Rear shock works better.
Feeling is really good! Neutralize kickback, you must have this chain damper on your bike.
My bike: commencal Furious 2025
After fitting the chain damper to my HB916 v1 I instantly notice how much quieter my bike was. The suspension moves so much more freely now and it is a big difference from beforehand. Even being a high pivot! Would highly recommend one. Super smooth
Made this purchase as a trial to see if it helped with racing and genuinely surprised how much it seemed to smooth out rough parts of the tracks!
These people are experts MTB in general, and the products they developed are only top tier and topping that with a very very good customer support.
Product does what it is advertised to do, however due to the nature of my bike’s linkage and the use of a 690 POE hub…the pedal feedback I am feeling has not been completely eliminated by the chain damper. I have NO complaints to the product itself, and I can say Matt’s personal touch during the transaction is especially appreciated.

great, thanks!
Bought the rimpact chain ring as I was experiencing quite a bit of kick back when jumping my bike. Which is because of the high engagement hubs I’m using. I’ve only been out on the bike twice since fitting it and the difference is night and day. Very impressed once funds allow I’ll be back for the steering damper
These are fantastic products!
I ordered a Chain Damper a few weeks ago.
Shipping from UK to Germany was way faster than from Germany to Germany.
The feeling from no Chain Damper to Chain Damper is a difference like day and night. üôÇ
Great product, nice contact, lovely people.
Works great! Keeps the drivetrain silent and the bike feeling calm.
Riding felt better instantly
The only other chain definitely advice I have used is an O-Chain so I was basing my first ride on that. The rimpact felt so smooth with really nice feel on the bike and my chain doesn't make any noise at all. With the heavy spring in the Rimpact you do get a bit of a springer feeling when pedaling around but since it's on my DH bike that doesn't matter to me at all. Overall this the best bang for your buck anit pedal kickback device on the market hands down!
Very nice customer service. Tristan was great
The bike is quiet, like it doesn't have a chain. The Rimpact also helped me with my broken ankle. I don't have as many bumps in my legs.
Absolutely flawless
Chain damper was the one of the best improvements I’ve ever made to my bike!
I haven’t used or installed it yet. But I’ve been a big fan and supporter of Rimpact since the inserts.
Very easy to get a view of all the steps.
It does exactly what they advertised. The only think that I have still some getting used to is pedaling. I would like to have a control knob to turn it on ou off like the O Chain.
Amazing service and good updates on delivery
Helps a lot even on short travel trail bike. Used with trail springs.
Seemed pretty straight forward ordering system.
No ifs, no buts, no coconuts.
You don’t know what you got till it’s gone.
On opening the smart, recyclable packaging of the Rimpact chain damper, one is presented with a beautifully crafted component –British engineering at its best (think Hope, Bergtec,…). The chain damper has a good, robust feel to it, which might distress weight-saving freaks, but given its location at the bottom bracket, I don’t foresee any problems at all of this slight additional weight, at least when descending.
On the opening weekend at bike park Leogang, I started with 2 descents of Flying Gangster with the original chainring. The bike (Commençal FRS) felt smooth enough, and I couldn’t really imagine much improvement.
After exchanging the chain ring for the Rimpact chain damper (easy, the FRS required no additional spacers), I pedalled to the lift station and then from the top of the lift to the trailhead (partly steep up). Although it’s possible to make the pedalling feel “strange”, if you pedal (also in flats) with a smooth, round action, you pretty much completely eliminate the play. I’m sure this will only become more natural.
But now to the whole point of the chain damper: descending. Within 30 metres of dropping in, it became clear to me that I had previously had no idea of what smooth feels like. It was like riding chainless but nevertheless with a whole cassette of gears at your disposal. The chain damper eliminated all the “noise” at the rear end - not only the noise in terms of unwanted sound, but more the chatter, kickback and general interference. The rear end felt composed like never before, and this feeling increased as I wrote on. And Flying Gangster is not even rough - it’s fast, but has no rocks or roots to speak of.
I’m not a racer (nor do I have any intention of becoming one), so I don’t know if this device will make you faster. However, for those riders who value descending above all else (like bike park riders such as myself), this is an incredible piece of kit. Descending 6-7,000+ vertical metres a day without all that chatter at the rear end, can only make you feel fresher and more focused on the job at hand in the latter part of the day.
You don’t know what you got till it’s gone. And boy am I glad all that chatter is gone.
Great customer service, cool products
