Description

We designed the TR8 Adjustable Length Crankset around one simple idea: one crankset that optimizes fit and pedaling efficiency for every rider, from XS to XL. Machined from high-strength 7075 aluminum, it’s engineered to clear obstacles on the downhill and take you back to the top with the kind of efficiency that keeps you fresh to do it again.

Most bikes come spec’d with cranks that are far too long for the average rider. Even a 5mm discrepancy in length can result in wasted energy, increased pedal strikes, and unnecessary joint wear. The TR8 allows you to fine-tune your crank length to your specific body and riding style. It’s a difference you’ll feel in the parking lot before you even reach the trailhead.

The TR8 utilizes an adjustable dovetail system paired with Grade 12.9 fasteners, giving you a range from 140mm to 175mm in 5mm increments. To ensure maximum durability, we chose a 7075 aluminum construction coated in a Type 3 Hard Anodized finish. At 885g, the TR8 prioritizes durability and precision adjustment over gram-shaving. However, the biomechanical advantage of a perfect fit far outweighs the scale weight. By optimizing your leverage and hip angle, you will pedal more efficiently and produce more usable power than you ever could on a "lightweight" 175mm carbon crankset.

We believe optimizing crank length is as essential as setting your seat post height. Once you find your "sweet spot" with the TR8, there is no going back. You’ll accelerate faster, climb with more sustained power, and clear technical sections that used to threaten you with pedal strikes. Fine-tune your ride with the TR8, and you’ll wonder why you were fighting against long cranks for so long.

Chainring sold separately.
