"Inside, a complex series of internal channels, ribs, and braces allows them to dial in maximum strength, while still building a crankset that weighs around 500g, depending on size. Atherton started with fit for their first foray into 3D-printing cranks. Much like their ti and aluminum bikes, they are leveraging adaptable manufacturing tech to make sure every mountain biker can get their perfect fit dialed."
"This level of choice lets riders optimise hip angle, ground clearance and suit their size, setup and preferred riding style. From tall riders to compact riders, high-cadence spinners to big-gear grinders, we've got them covered. They even say they'll expand the 11-size range or make eMTB cranks available, if there is real demand."
"The Atherton A.Gr.Ti is built to last decades of even the roughest gravity mountain biking. Designed, engineered, 3D-printed, and tested in Dyfi, the new Atherton A.Gr.Ti cranks look simple on the outside, but that's the beauty of additively manufacturing."
Atherton Bikes applies their 3D-printing expertise to develop A.Gr.Ti mountain bike cranks combining lightweight performance with exceptional durability. The cranks weigh approximately 500g and feature internal channels, ribs, and braces optimizing strength through additive manufacturing. Available in 11 arm lengths from 150-175mm in 2.5mm increments, three chainline options, and designed with low-profile tips providing 5-6mm extra ground clearance. Made from aerospace-grade titanium, the cranks accommodate various rider sizes and styles while backed by a lifetime guarantee. The company indicates potential expansion to eMTB cranks based on demand.
