Cold-Forged Aluminum Cranks
Most mid-priced bicycles use casted aluminum cranks. Casting is a cheaper technology but because it is less reliable, cranks need to be over-built and are heavy and chunky. Our cold-forged cranks are light and have beautiful flowing lines. Special touches include custom chainrings and a painstakingly hand-polished finish. On D7 models, a double chainguard eliminates chain-dropping.
