Types of road cranks

Compact road cranks

The Compact road cranksets are made up of two chainrings, a lower 34 or 36 tooth chainring and a large 50 tooth chainring, this type of Compact road crankset is a great alternative to three chainrings.

Advantages of Compact Road Cranks

They offer a wide range of gears and allow fluid pedaling with an optimal chain range that favors greater chain resistance. This type of road crankset is widely used in cycle tourism and in mountainous terrain thanks to its optimal gear range for these terrains.

Standard road cranks

Standard cranksets come equipped with two chainrings, a lower chainring typically with 39 or 42 teeth and a large chainring with 52 or 53 teeth. This type of crankset is widely used in competition or on flatter terrain thanks to its greater range of gears.

Road crankset three chainrings

There are also three-ring road cranks, but they are less and less used. Normally the intermediate chainring and the outer one tend to present ratios similar to those found in Compact or standard chainring sets.

Advantages of Compact Road Cranks

The benefit of three chainrings is that they have a small chainring with few teeth and it is an extra help when climbing long slopes or big differences in level.

Road bike cranks

Road bike cranks are the part of the transmission of road bikes responsible for transferring the force exerted by the cyclist pedaling to the shimano road chain or sram road chain and this in turn to the rear wheel of road bikes. The road bike cranks are made up of chainrings that are attached to the road bike cranks that, with their gears, make the shimano road chain rotate. In the road bike cranks there is one for the right leg and another road bike crank for the left, the latter being the one that incorporates the chainrings. Road bike cranks are mounted on the bottom bracket of road bikes.
