Description
The Campagnolo Ultra-Torque Crankset Silver 50/34 is engineered for road cyclists seeking uncompromising performance and precision in their drivetrain setup. Designed to deliver maximum power transfer with minimal energy loss, this crankset combines cutting-edge technology with a sleek aesthetic to elevate your riding experience on demanding terrain or competitive races.
Key Features:
Crafted from lightweight aluminum with a hollow-machined rear profile, these cranks shave grams without sacrificing strength, making them ideal for performance-oriented builds. The hard-anodized alloy chainrings feature Campagnolo’s X.P.S.S. (eXtreme Performance Shifting System) geometry, ensuring razor-sharp shifting efficiency when paired with a full Campagnolo drivetrain—perfect for 11-speed setups on high-end road bikes. The Ultra-Torque system’s Hirth Joint centering mechanism guarantees precise alignment at the heart of the bottom bracket shell, enhancing stiffness and power delivery directly to the pedals while maintaining an impressively low weight of just 865g.
Compatibility & Performance:
With dual asymmetric bolt-circle diameters (146mm and 112mm), this crankset offers flexibility for standard, mid-compact, or compact chainring configurations—ideal for optimizing cadence across varied riding conditions. The pre-installed drive-side and non-drive-side bearings streamline installation but require Campagnolo Ultra-Torque bottom bracket cups for proper use (sold separately). Tailored for road racing and endurance riding on 130mm hubs, it’s built for riders prioritizing responsiveness and durability on long-distance routes or aggressive climbs.
