Description
Elevate Your Road Performance with SRAM RED 1 AXS Crankset
Experience pure speed and unmatched efficiency with the SRAM RED 1 AXS crankset – engineered for competitive cyclists who demand precision on paved roads, triathlon courses, and cyclocross tracks. This revolutionary single-ring system eliminates front derailleur complexity, shedding weight while delivering a tightly optimized gear range perfect for flat terrain sprints and sustained high-cadence efforts where wide ratios add unnecessary bulk.
Why Riders Choose RED 1 AXS:
Uncompromising Chain Security: SRAM’s proprietary X-SYNC™ 2 chainring technology combines wide and narrow tooth profiles to lock the chain in place, virtually eliminating drops even during aggressive shifts or rough cyclocross sections.
Featherlight Carbon Construction: Crafted from premium carbon fiber in a striking Natural Carbon finish, it maximizes stiffness-to-weight ratio for explosive power transfer from pedal stroke to pavement.
Seamless Electronic Integration: Designed from the ground up for flawless compatibility with SRAM AXS electronic groupsets (upgradeable to Quarq power meters), ensuring lightning-fast, reliable shifts every time.
Optimized Road/Triathlon Gearing: The efficient 40-tooth ring provides ideal cadence control for road racing tactics and time-trial pacing without the clutter of unused gears.
Engineered Compatibility & Precision:
Fitted with the robust SRAM DUB spindle (bottom bracket sold separately), it ensures broad frame compatibility including road disc hubs (130mm or 135/142mm with chainstays under 415mm). Ready for 12-speed drivetrains and standard 9/16″ pedals, it’s available in a performance-tuned 167.5mm crank length for optimal biomechanics.
