Andel Deluxe Track crankset w/ bottom bracket - Closeout
$ 120.00
$ 145.00
The Andel Deluxe features 6061-T6 arms, stiff integrated 24mm hollow cromo steel axle, 48t x 1/8" 144mm bcd chainring and includes a sealed cartridge bearing outboard bearing Hollowtype II-type bottom bracket.
Hands down one of the best "bang-for-your-buck" outboard bearing track cranksets on the market.
Unlike a GXP track crankset (like Sram Omnium), Andel Deluxe cranksets can easily be adjusted from side-to-side using bottom bracket spacers to dial in chainline and overcome clearance issues.

Hollowtech II-style cranksets are very easy to install, following this procedure:
- Apply grease to the bottom bracket threads and bottom bracket shell threads, and install the bearing cups to 5-50 Nm {305 - 435 in. lbs}
- Apply a thin coat of grease to the crank axle, and slide it through both bearing cups.
- Apply grease to the splined crank arm interface and pressure bolt threads, and install the left arm using the pressure bolt. The pressure bolt should only be tightened enough to remove side-to-side play in the crankset. Overtightening will cause the left side bearing (or both bearings) to bind, preventing the crank from spinning freely.
- Tighten the two pinch bolts, back and forth, until 5-50 Nm {305 - 435 in. lbs.} is reached.
Please note, you will want to re-check the torque of the pinch bolts after riding a few times to ensure they remain secure.
