Bike cranksets and chainrings

The size and type of the bottom bracket are crucial when choosing a crankset. There are variants with 1 to 3 chainrings. To have properly functioning shifting, choose the right front derailleur and shifter. The length of the cranks is chosen according to the rider's height. But only Bikefitting measurements reveal the exact size. They are usually made of aluminium, but those made of carbon are the lightest. You can purchase the individual parts (chainrings, tensioners, rock rings) separately. Find out more about our latest tests, articles and experiences in the MAGAZINE section.
