With its expansion, "Crank Brothers" is increasingly becoming a full-range supplier of mountain bike components (components for road bikes have been removed from the range). What began just seven years ago with the legendary "Eggbeater" pedal has now grown into a considerable range.
All products in the new series should arrive at the distributors in the next few days and will then be fully available.

Candy pedal

"Crank Brothers" has redesigned the Candy pedal, which now comes with an aluminum cage instead of a plastic one. In addition, the pedal axle has been massively reinforced and the waterproofness of the bearings has been improved. The top version of the Candy pedal weighs 226 grams per pair with a titanium axle. In addition, small rubber covers are available for the pedals (Candy and Eggbeater) to improve the contact surface of the shoe with the pedal. Until now, racers have had to solve this with elaborate constructions of their own or with adhesive tape.

The newly launched stems are not fastened with several screws as is usual today, but with a single-screw clamping mechanism. This means that no screws are visible from the outside. "Crank Brothers" thus underlines its high standards for the appearance of its products. The stems are available for cross-country and all-mountain use.

Saddle posts

Now that "Crank Brothers" is already active in this segment with height-adjustable seatposts, they are now also offering conventional seatposts in aluminum and carbon. The saddle is secured with a screw. The customer is spared the fiddling with up to four Allen screws on the saddle rail. The seat posts are available in different tube diameters, with the lightest carbon version weighing in at 157 grams (with a diameter of 31.6 mm)

Handlebars

In addition to the new stems, "Crank Brothers" also offers matching handlebars made of carbon and aluminum. Here too, various models are presented for cross-country and all-mountain use, all of which are available with different risers. With a width of 680 millimetres and a 15 millimetre offset, the Cobalt cross-country handlebar weighs in at 230 grams.

Grips

"Crank Brothers" now also has two screw-on grips in its portfolio. The cross-country version is based on a foamed rubber (weight 74 grams), while the all-mountain version has a classic polyurethane rubber surface (weight 97 grams).
