ROTOR crank arms Kapic MTB 1-way
With the Rotor Kapic crank, the Spanish component manufacturer is expanding its portfolio with an extremely light aluminum crank for cross country and marathon racers. The crank owes its name to the 6 victories by Rotor athletes at the legendary Cape Epic (CAPe ePIC = Kapic) stage race in South Africa. Introduced in 2017 for the R-Hawk and R-Raptor cranks , the Kapic takes over the modular crank system of its siblings from the gravity range. The crank arms can be freely combined with various crankshafts, chainrings and bumpers. So you can adapt the crank to your bike both technically and optically.
The crank arms are hollow-drilled in 3 channels up to the axle using the Trinity Drilling System. The removed material only has a minimal effect on the stiffness of the crank. The necessary rigidity and stability is achieved through lightweight construction and large outer diameters. To protect the crank arms against abrasion and stone chips, the crank arms have rubberized bumpers. These are available in 7 different colors and make the crank an eye catcher on your bike. The crank system is compatible with the round rotor NoQX1 or the oval QX1 rings direct mount chainrings. For a coherent overall picture, Rotor has optically adapted the chainrings to the martial design of the Kapic. In order to be able to change the modular system as quickly as possible, only an 8 millimeter Allen key is required to change the chainring and crankshaft. With 2 different crankshaft lengths (standard and BOOST) with a diameter of 30 millimeters, the crank system is suitable for all common frame and bottom bracket standards.
