Race Face Aeffect Crankset: Trail-Ready Performance Meets Modular Versatility
Engineered for aggressive trail riders who demand lightweight precision without premium pricing, the Race Face Aeffect crank delivers XC-level efficiency forged from robust 6066 aluminum. Its revolutionary CINCH system unlocks unmatched drivetrain flexibility—seamlessly adapt between 1x simplicity, 2x range (with or without bash guards), or classic 3x setups using interchangeable spiders and direct-mount chainrings.
Why Riders Choose Aeffect:
✓ Universal Compatibility: Fits Race Face EXI and Shimano Hollowtech II bottom brackets (24mm spindle)
✓ Future-Proof Gearing: Optimized for modern 9-12 speed drivetrains and Boost/DH hubs (135-157mm)
✓ Tool-Smart Design: Requires only a 20-tooth ISIS tool for swift chainring swaps
✓ Rider-Tuned Options: Available in 170mm length (9/16″ pedal spindle), sleek black finish
Ideal for enduro racers tackling steep climbs or all-mountain adventurers navigating technical terrain, this crank’s modularity lets you customize your setup as trails evolve. Forgot chainrings? Start fresh—no rings or spider included.
