SRAM RED E1 XPLR 1x Crankset

The SRAM RED E1 XPLR 1x Crankset is a lightweight, stiff crankset that is ready to tackle the toughest gravel riding. Using an 8-bolt direct mount chainring, this crank eliminates the need for a front derailleur. In addition, the SRAM RED XPLR carbon crank arms are made from a new carbon layup, making them SRAM’s lightest carbon crank arms yet. SRAM’s X-SYNC narrow-wide tooth profile helps improve chain retention and reduce the chances of a dropped chain.

The RED E1 XPLR 1 Crankset uses a DUB Wide spindle, making it compatible with a wide range of frames and bottom brackets. SRAM has also added new crank length which includes cranks as short as 150 mm.
