Era SL Crank Explained

What makes Era SL ultralight, unscuffable and unequalled?

Unscuffable Wear Plate. Unequaled Performance.

Precision protection where it matters most. Our stainless steel wear plate is strategically minimized and precisely positioned to shield high-wear contact zones caused by rider shoes and the increased articulation of modern clipless pedals. Maximum protection. Minimal grams.

One Size Doesn’t Fit All.

Not all riders are the same and your crank length shouldn’t be either. Some riders prefer a high-cadence spin. Others live to push big watts. To support every riding style, we offer four crank length options from 160mm to 175mm so you can dial in fit, efficiency, and power delivery.

Ride Light. Crank Hard.

At just 354g, Era SL is the lightest mainstream crankset on the market—engineered with the strength and durability to withstand daily abuse. Save weight on your build, rebel against scuffs and unlock your biggest Downcountry days. Backed by a Lifetime Warranty. Crashes included.

Light, stiff, responsive

Light, stiff, responsive, and best of all they feel strong. Have only ridden on local smooth trails so far, but have loved them on the climbs. Cant wait to see how they handle rougher descents!

Does this crankset work with standard mountain bike bottom brackets?
