Product Information
Looking for a reliable way to reduce chain wear and protect your mini bike's swingarm? The RTech Swingarm Chain Slider is built specifically for smaller KTM bikes from 2017-2026, helping young riders keep their bikes running smoother and longer. Designed as a direct replacement component, it follows OEM mounting points for straightforward installation.
On KTM 50cc motocross and electric mini bikes, the chain runs close to the swingarm and constantly moves under load. Over time, that friction can wear into the swingarm if the slider is worn or damaged. This orange RTech chain slider acts as a durable barrier between the chain and the aluminum swingarm, absorbing contact and minimizing long-term damage.
Whether you're maintaining a race-ready bike or keeping a practice bike dialed in, replacing a worn chain slider is a simple way to prevent costly repairs and maintain proper chain alignment. Ideal for MX tracks, backyard practice, and youth competition, this slider supports consistent chain movement while helping protect one of the most important structural components on the bike.
