Notable Tech, Materials & Construction

DUB Wide Technology

The DUB Wide spindle standard increases chainline while maintaining excellent crank stiffness. This allows compatibility with modern gravel frames designed around larger tyres and wider rear triangle clearances.

X-SYNC Chainring Technology

The chainring uses SRAM's narrow-wide tooth profile, specifically developed to maximise chain retention over rough terrain. The design significantly reduces the risk of dropped chains on corrugations, rocky tracks and technical descents.

Direct Mount Chainring Interface

The direct mount system allows quick chainring changes and maintains a stiff, secure connection between the chainring and crankset. Riders can easily tailor gearing for racing, endurance riding or adventure use.

Forged Aluminium Construction

Forged aluminium crankarms offer an excellent blend of durability, stiffness and affordability. This makes the crankset highly suitable for riders accumulating significant annual kilometres in harsh riding environments.
