Sugar Cayne
Los Angeles based E-Bike company Chimera, makes these sick Titanium cranks for BMX and MTB! The unique CNC designed crank arms really stand out from the rest of the cranks on the market. Machined 6Al-4V “Grade 5” titanium with its split lattice design give these crank arms an incredible strength-to-weight ratio.
Each 170mm crank arm weighs under 8oz. Although there are lighter cranks on the market, fatigue and impact testing at ACT Labs in Long Beach, CA showed that these crank arms in particular remain durable even as titanium spindles and standard BMX pedals begin to fail. What this means is that after repeated abuse, you’ll more likely need to replace your spindle, bottom bracket bearing, and/or pedal long before you’ll need to replace one of these crankarms.
