| Description |
Deep in the hills of Santa Cruz, cyclists are met by a nasty, four-mile, 1800 ft. climb named Alba Road. This respected ascent was the inspiration for the Praxis Works Alba road chainset. With its shapely forged-alloy arms, M24 alloy spindle, LevaTime II X-Spider and chainring, the Alba is ready for anything. LevaTime X-Spider and Chainring This 1x10/11 speed chainset features a LevaTime II (LT2) X-Spider and chainring that's the product of years of relentless testing and tweaking. This all new LT2 X-Spider is even stiffer than the original generation X-Spider. With a new forging design to support the new LT2 5mm plate big rings, this direct mount model keeps things flex-free when it’s time to put the power down. One Shot Forging At Praxis Works, the primary reason it forges its chainring is that it allows them to create dramatically shaped teeth and ramping surfaces. The brand's “One Shot” forging process allows it to make these shapes, and at the same time, create a harder and tougher ring than the competition’s machined rings. Imagine for a second, you have a big hammer and you are hitting a cold block of metal trying to shape it. Now, imagine the hammer is the size of a car and when you swing that hammer you’ve got hundreds to thousands of tons of pressure behind it. It’s a very intense and difficult process that requires a great deal of tooling know-how. This manufacturing process happens to be the brand's specialty. M24 Bottom Bracket This chainset comes complete with a press fit M24/GxP bottom bracket for installing a M24/GxP spindle crank into a BB86 Road or BB90/BB92 MTN Frame. Praxis M24 bottom brackets have a 24mm Drive and a 22mm NonDrive Bearing. These are specifically made for use with Praxis M24 spindle cranks or SRAM GxP spindle cranks. A drive-side wave washer is used for preload of the bearings. This specific press fit M24 bottom bracket is made to be installed in a BB86 Road or BB90/92 MTN frame. Born and based in the cycling mecca of Santa Cruz, California, Praxis creates and manufactures some of the best bicycle parts on the globe. Please note: Image is for demonstration purposes only, actual chainset contains an M24 bottom bracket.
