Race Face Atlas Crank: Forged Toughness Meets Ultimate Versatility
Conquer demanding trails with the Race Face Atlas crank – your premium forged solution for aggressive mountain biking disciplines like technical enduro racing, high-speed downhill runs (DH), freeride sessions on unforgiving terrain, and challenging all-mountain adventures. Engineered from high-strength 7050 aluminum using advanced forging techniques and featuring an internal bracing matrix design, these cranks deliver exceptional stiffness where you need it most: translating every ounce of your power into forward motion without wasteful flex.
Unmatched Compatibility & Customization:
The revolutionary CINCH system is at the heart of the Atlas’s versatility:
* Effortless Gearing Swaps: Seamlessly adapt your setup using any CINCH direct mount chainring or spider.
* Future-Proof Drivetrains: Supports virtually any configuration – run efficient 1x setups for simplicity (with or without a bash guard), traditional 2x for wider gear ranges on epic cross-country rides (XC), or even classic 3x systems.
* Universal Frame Fit: Features a robust CNC-machined 30mm aluminum super alloy spindle ensuring compatibility across critical mountain bike frame standards including standard MTB hubs (135/142) and wider Super Boost hubs (157mm).
Built for Riders Who Demand More:
Experience precise installation and removal thanks to the standardized ISIS-compatible interface requiring just a common 20-tooth bottom bracket tool.
* Available in sleek black (165mm arm length) to match any aggressive trail bike build.
* Optimized for modern drivetrains supporting 9 through to cutting-edge 12-speed systems.
* Note:* Sold as crank arms only – choose your perfect chainring setup separately for ultimate personalization.
