• Arms are carefully engineered using ultra-high strength 7050 aluminum alloy to maximize strength to weight ratio.
• Fully forged for maximum fatigue resistance and then extensively CNC machined for that classic Race Face look.
• Aggressive I-Beam profiling minimizes weight while maintaining stiffness and strength.
• Team rings are CNC machined from super-hard 7075 aluminum to maximize wear resistance & impact strength.
• All Race Face XC cranksets feature our new ‘EXI' interface external bottom bracket system for easier crank installation and removal with standard tools and fully adjustable chainline.
• Features a super light, butted, forged and CNC machined CrMo EXI spindle.
• All alloy hardware keeps weight down and coolness high. Crank bolt puller cap makes crank removal a snap with just an 8mm hex wrench.
• Bearings feature our new custom triple wiper seal to better retain grease & keep contaminants out.
• Bearings are factory filled with Phil Wood waterproof grease - tested & proven to extend bearing life.
