All of our crankset utilize the same Direct Mount (DM) interface which means you can use Rotor's DM chainrings or a 110x4 spider. Rotor's DM chainrings are machined from a single piece of aluminum, meaning they are stiffer and provide additional weight savings over the 110x4 spider/chainring set up. Additionally, all of Rotor's cranksets can be upgraded to be used with the INspider power meter at any time.

Rotor's cranksets use a 30mm spindle unless noted as a "24" crankset, meaning they use a 24mm spindle. Both the 30mm and 24mm axle are available in "Standard" or "Offset" options. The Offset axle is used primarily for gravel bikes.
