Alta One/Piece Crank 175mm Black
Size:
- 175mm Length: This one-piece crank arm length provides ample leverage for more efficient pedaling power and torque, suitable for riders who prefer a longer crank arm for increased control, particularly useful for BMX, cruiser, and single-speed bikes. The 175mm length is a versatile choice, fitting well with most medium to large frames and enhancing the power transfer for a more responsive ride.
Thread:
- 24 TPI (Threads Per Inch): The crank features a 24 TPI threading, which is standard in most one-piece cranks and compatible with American bottom bracket systems. This threading ensures a solid connection to the bottom bracket, reducing loosening over time and maintaining a secure attachment.
Pedals Compatibility:
- 1/2-Inch Pedal Threads: Designed to accept 1/2-inch pedal spindles, common in BMX, lowrider, and cruiser bikes. This compatibility makes it an ideal choice for vintage-styled builds and easy to pair with a wide variety of pedal styles, including flat, cage, and custom lowrider pedals.
Material:
- High-Grade Steel Construction: The crank is crafted from high-quality steel, providing exceptional durability and resilience to bending and wear under pressure. Steel’s strength-to-weight ratio makes it well-suited for both casual and intense riding environments, and its robust nature makes this crank suitable for both flatland and freestyle applications where durability is key.
Style:
- Smooth Finish: The smooth, rounded design of the crank arms provides a clean, minimalist aesthetic while reducing weight slightly compared to twisted or elaborately shaped cranks. This style is popular among riders looking for a sleek, understated look that complements both modern and vintage bike builds.
Color:
- Matte Black Finish: The black coating offers a durable, scratch-resistant surface that maintains its appearance through frequent use. This neutral black finish makes it a great match for various color schemes, enhancing the bike’s overall appearance, particularly for riders who prefer a more subtle or monochromatic style.
