Lightweight Prototype RNC cranks

(1/2) > >>

out~riding:

--- Quote from: RNC ---New prototype cranks. These are made from the strongest metal on the planet that has a tensile strength of 350,00 psi. They will have a finished weight of 349 grams with spindle and bolts and be the lightest crank on the market. For reference my old titanium arms are over 200 grams each. These will be lighter and actually stronger as well.

These look incredible

FlatSociety:
I speak with Ryan from RNC regularly & he wants to only make cranks with a 24mm spindle only for now on. I tried to talk him into at least a 22mm version, but to no avail lol I explained to him that there is currently no existing Spanish BB that is 24mm compatible. There are bearings of course, but not a complete BB Set. Fortunately, he's made an adapter that will work on a couple of micro sprockets that are newly out that will allow them to be converted to 24mm. I don't know of any Flatlanders that ride 24mm cranks for these reasons, I guess we'll see what happens...

metalbmxer:
Oh whoa thanks for the updates!
