SRAM RED 1 48T Crankset

Description

Triathlon. Time Trial. Cyclocross. Some disciplines are made for 1x.

While our X-Range™ 2x set up has integrated much of the simplicity of a 1x system, there are still times when a single ring is best. The SRAM RED® 1 crankset offers the most demanding racers the right mix of features—aerodynamics, durability and simplicity.

• Single-ring drivetrain simplifies functionality and reduces weight
• 48 and 50t variants feature direct mount aero chainrings for better aerodynamics
• Non-aero chainrings can be installed with a single tool, making gearing changes a breeze
• SRAM X-SYNC™ wide-tooth, narrow-tooth chainring technology provides maximum chain control
• Laser-etched chainring finish is more durable
• DUB™ bottom bracket adds durability, simplicity and broad compatibility
• Can be upgraded to a power meter

Exogram – Our Hollow Carbon Construction starts in the crank arm and extends into the crank’s spider, maximizing the stiffness to weight ratio.

X-SYNC – SRAM X-SYNC 1x chainrings provide the highest level of performance and durability. The SRAM X-SYNC tall square teeth edges engage the chain earlier than traditional triangle shaped teeth. The sharp and narrow tooth profile, as well as rounded chamfer edges, help manage a deflected chain. To provide the best possible performance in muddy conditions, the X-SYNC chainrings have been designed with mud-clearing recesses for the inner chain links and rollers. Engineered in Germany, X-SYNC rings are an integral part of the SRAM 1x drivetrain. Accept no imitation.

DUB – The relationship between bottom bracket spindle and bearing is the core of DUB technology. It’s where stiffness meets durability. We took it a step beyond conventional thinking and made everything simpler – better integrating the relationship between chainring, crank, spindle and bottom bracket. It’s this approach to developing a complete system that equals better drivetrain performance.

X-Range – Road bikes are faster and more capable than ever before, and riders are expanding what’s possible with drop bar bikes. X-Range is gearing for today’s road riding. We completely reimagined road gearing for wider range, more useful and smoother gear progression, as well as smarter shift settings – enabled by AXS. With X-Range, you’re always in the right gear.
