Praxis Works Alba 1x10-11 Speed Direct Mount ChainsetDeep 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, M30 alloy spindle, LevaTime II X-Spider and chainring, the Alba is ready for anything.LevaTime X-Spider and ChainringThis 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 ForgingAt 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 BracketThis 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.Features: Crankarm Material: Forged Aluminium Chainring Material: Cold-Forged 7075 T6 Aluminium Use: Road Mount: Direct Mount Speed: 10/11 speed Tooth Count: 40T Q-Factor: 147mm Chainline: 45.4mm Number of Chainrings: 1 Chainring Included: Yes Bottom Bracket Included: Yes (M24) Weight: 800g (172.5mm option approx)Manufacturer's Part Numbers: 89222983 Black 40T 165mm 89222979 Black 40T 170mm 89222980 Black 40T 172.5mm 89222981 Black 40T 175mmBuy Praxis Works Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Named after a brutal 4 mile, 1800ft climb called Alba Road in Santa Cruz, California, the Praxis Works Alba X crankset is designed to laugh in the face of such climbs, with an excellent range of gearing options & lightweight construction all without a heavy weight price.Lightweight solid forged arms are incredibly stiff for efficient power transferM30 spindle is compatible with BSA, BB86, 386EVO, BB30, PF30, T47, BBRight & OSBB bottom bracket shells BB's sold separately10/11spd LevaTime II chainrings are cold forged for supreme shift quality & durabilityVersatile modular design can accept 2x or 1x DM chainringsLightweight at just 800g (170mm w/ 50/34T Chainrings)Where most cranksets can only be fitted with a small selection of chainrings, the Alba X is designed with versatility in mind. While equipped with 2x chainrings as standard, the direct mount design can easily be swapped out for a 1x chainring or another 2x combination in a different ratio. Praxis wants you to have control. Add in to this compatibility with pretty much any bottom bracket shell on the market when used with the appropriate bottom bracket, and you have an incredibly versatile crankset that is happy to grace lightweight carbon race bikes or tough steel gravel bikes. The crankarms themselves are solid forged, which gives them immense strength and stiffness, so you can be sure every watt of power your legs can muster isn't wasn't with flex. Despite this, the crankset is extremely light at just 800g. The M30 spindle also helps to keep weight low and stiffness high.Whereas most chainrings are stamped or machined pieces of aluminium, the Alba X's chainrings are cold forged from 7075 T6 aluminium and then hard anodized. This unique method creates chainrings that are just as light, but are much, much harder wearing and provide slicker shifting for longer. Further improving the shifting performance is Praxis Works LevaTime II Shifting Technology. LevaTime II Shifting boasts a series of synchronised ramps and strategically placed shift pins to help deliver perfecting every time. Lightweight, stiff, smooth shifting and extremely versatile, the Praxis Works Alba X crankset is perfect for riders who want maximum performance without breaking the bank.
