Altaline Bicycle

Brand: AltaLine

Model: Alloy 8160 Track Crankset

Material: Alloy

• Constructed from high-quality, lightweight alloy, this crankset is built for strength and efficiency. Alloy is a popular choice for track and fixed-gear cranksets due to its ability to withstand high stress without adding unnecessary weight to the bike.

Color: Chrome

• The polished chrome finish gives the crankset a bright, reflective appearance, appealing to riders who want a classic, eye-catching look. The chrome finish also provides enhanced corrosion resistance, ensuring the crankset retains its shine over time.

Teeth Count: 48T

• With 48 teeth on the chainring, this crankset offers high gearing, ideal for track cycling and high-speed urban commuting. The 48T chainring enables faster speeds with each pedal stroke, making it an optimal choice for riders who prioritize efficiency and speed.

Speed: Single-Speed

• Designed for single-speed applications, this crankset is perfect for fixed-gear, track, and single-speed bikes. The single-speed setup reduces mechanical complexity, providing ease of maintenance and a streamlined riding experience.

Spindle Type: Square Taper JIS

• The Square Taper JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) spindle type is a common fitment for track cranksets. It ensures a secure connection between the crankset and bottom bracket, providing stability and efficiency during high-power pedaling.

Spacing: 1/8-Inch

• The crankset is compatible with 1/8-inch single-speed chains, which are wider and more robust than multi-speed chains. This spacing enhances durability and performance, especially for riders in demanding track or urban environments.

Bolt Pattern: 130mm, 5-Bolt

• With a 130mm 5-bolt bolt circle diameter (BCD), the crankset ensures compatibility with a wide range of chainrings featuring the same BCD. The 5-bolt design securely holds the chainring in place, adding stability for powerful pedaling.

Length: 170mm

• This crank arm length of 170mm provides an ideal balance for track and road cycling. It delivers an efficient power transfer and sufficient leverage for most riders, supporting a strong, controlled pedal stroke.

Material:

• Alloy Construction: Lightweight yet strong, the alloy construction reduces the bike’s weight without compromising durability. This is especially beneficial for performance-focused riders who need a responsive and sturdy crankset.
• Chrome Finish: The chrome coating not only gives the crankset a highly polished, reflective appearance but also enhances resistance to rust and environmental wear, maintaining the crankset's look and durability over time.

Compatibility:

• Bottom Bracket Compatibility: Requires a square taper JIS bottom bracket, which is widely used in single-speed and track bicycles. The square taper design provides a stable, secure fit for aggressive riding.
• Chain Compatibility: Optimized for 1/8-inch chains, commonly used on single-speed, fixed-gear, and track bikes. This type of chain is wider, enhancing durability under high-stress conditions.
