FSA K-Force Light ABS BB392EVO crankset


FSA’S NEWFLAGSHIP single-ring crankset is a great choice for powerful riders wanting to save weight.

The boxy hollow carbon arms with co-moulded spider and oversize 30mm axle are seriously stiff, no matter how hard you brace yourself against the bar and strain the pedals round. The BB392 axle/BB standard will fit BB30, PF30 and smaller diameter press-fit or threaded frames with the right adaptors. At a fraction over 450g, the K-Forces offer a big weight saving over most cranks too. The machined alloy chainrings use a unique ‘ABS’ bolt spacing, but FSA have a decent range of chainring sizes (30-36t). The subtly hooked, extended ‘Megatooth’ design is acceptably secure but beware of tooth-chipping boulder strikes. High performance equals a high price too.

WEIGHT: 452g
ARMS: 170,175mm

Price 675$

Instantly, the big bold logos on each rim scream "fast", "light" and to some extent, "expensive" The kids call this 'bling'.

COMMENCAL EL CAMINO 3

Commencal are going from strength to strength at the moment and they’ve taken their tough trail hardtail bang up to date with 650b wheels. With its skinny rims, crankset and fork, the El Camino certainly isn’t perfect and it’s the least hardcore bike here. The handling, smoothness, speed and all-round agility of the basic bike still make it a real blast for technical trail riding though, and it’s a great base for upgrading over time.
