E13 Lg1 Crank Test


The LG-1 cranks by E Thirteen came out with very high expectations from the downhill community as a whole. This in large part was due to E Thirteen's chainguides that have been one of the best on the market for close to a decade. They aimed to produce a super stiff crank that was both durable and lightweight.
 FEATURES
  • P3 Connect polygon 3 lobe connection spindle interface
  • Forged and then machined Exalite Aluminum arms 
  • 30mm Aluminum spindle 
  • 14mm pedal thread engagement 
  • Gold anodize spindle/hardware
  • Available in "Blackout" black 
  • Forged and then machined 7050 Aluminum arms.
  • 7050 is 40% stronger than most common hollow forged alloys.
  • 30mm heat-treated cromoly spindle.
  • It is 200%+ stiffer than 24mm steel spindles commonly used in external bearing cranksets.
  • German DIN 32711-P3 Polygon interface provides 100% surface contact between spindle and crankarm.
  • Eliminates fretting corrosion – the prime cause of dreaded crankset creaking and loosening.
