Compact chainrings have been the dominant standard for mountain bike cranks since the mid nineties. In the context of road cycling , compact drivetrain typically refers to double cranksets with a smaller (usually 110 mm (4.3 in)) bolt circle diameter than the standard 130 mm (5.1 in) or Campagnolo's 135 mm (5.3 in).
Chainring: (one of the) front gear(s), attached to a crank; Chainset: see Crankset; Chainstay: a pair of tubes on a bicycle frame that runs from the bottom bracket to the rear fork ends; Chain tensioner: a device to maintain proper chain tension; Chaintug: a device to aid in setting the proper chain tension
A Suntour Sprint rear derailleur A front derailleur manufactured by Suntour a pair of Suntour road brakes. In 1964, Suntour invented the slant-parallelogram rear derailleur. The parallelogram rear derailleur had gained prominence after Campagnolo's introduction of the "Gran Sport" in 1949, [7] [8] and the slant-parallelogram was an improvement of it that allowed the derailleur to maintain a ...
The recall impacts Shimano Ultegra FC-6800, Dura-Ace FC-9000, Ultegra FC-R8000, Dura-Ace FC-R9100 and FC-R9100P 11-Speed Bonded Hollowtech Road Cranksets that were manufactured in Japan prior
The difference between the two can be seen by the depth of mounting grooves on the bottom bracket spindle. v1 spline grooves are 5 mm long, while v2 grooves are 9 mm long. Shimano 105, Ultegra 6500 and Dura Ace 7700 cranksets mate to v1 spindles, while later mountain bike designs use the deeper-grooved v2.
Deore XT is a mountain and touring bike groupset first introduced by Shimano in 1983. [1] It was Shimano's first mountain bike groupset, based on their existing Deore touring groupset, and it consisted of a triple-, double- or single chainring crankset, front and rear derailleurs, handlebar-mounted "finger" shifters, cantilever brakes, and large-flange hubs.

A professional bike fit should be an in-depth experience with a professionally trained fitter that includes an interview process, off-bike flexibility testing, and on-bike measurements and ...
Q factor is a function of both the bottom bracket width (axle length) and the cranks. Bottom brackets axles vary in length from 102mm to 127mm. Mountain bike cranks are typically about 20mm wider than road cranks. [6] A larger Q factor (wider tread) will mean less cornering clearance (while pedaling) for the same bottom bracket height and crank ...
