Miche Pistard Air crankset
$ 295.00
Introduced to the track market in 2017, the Miche Pistard Air crankset has been designed to enhance rigidity and aerodynamics with an integrated 24mm Evo Max axle & outboard bearing bottom bracket system.
The Pistard Air is a more aerodynamic version of the Miche Pistard 2.0 crankset with seamless linkage between crank, chainring and bottom bracket.
Available in 165mm and 170mm lengths with a 49t x 1/8" chainring.
Miche Evo Max bottom bracket is required and sold separately.
FYI: "Pistard" translates to "track cyclist" or "track racer" in English, referring to a cyclist who competes in velodrome events. The term is used in several languages, including French, Italian, and Dutch. There, you learned something today.

Miche Pistard Air/Pistard 2.0 Installation Manual
If you break the included non drive-side compensator ring during installation or service (and you probably will because they break very easily), a 1mm bottom bracket cup spacer can be used in its place. Do not use this crankset without the compensator ring or spacer of equal thickness.
