What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I've been running this crankset on my TT rig, and it's been rock solid. The direct-mount 50T aero chainring slices through the wind, and SRAM's X-SYNC chainring profile keeps the chain locked in, even over choppy pavement. Super stiff, lightweight, and the DUB spindle makes setup a breeze."We're all in on streamlined speed and dependable simplicity, and the SRAM Force 1 Crankset delivers both. Designed to pair perfectly with SRAM's aero 1x chainrings, this crankset is built for riders chasing every marginal gain on the road, in time trials, or during solo training missions. Whether we're hammering through headwinds or attacking that final segment, this crankset delivers stiffness and responsiveness with confidence. SRAM packs this crank with carbon crank arms and a DUB spindle interface to optimize stiffness-to-weight ratio while simplifying bottom bracket compatibility. The X-SYNC narrow-wide tooth profile ensures tight chain retention without needing a guide, and it's compatible with both 12- and 13-speed drivetrains. Best of all, it can be upgraded to a power meter down the line, making it future-ready for data-driven riders.
