SRAM Red XPLR DUB Wide E1 Crank | Lightweight Carbon Performance for Gravel
Elevate your gravel riding and adventure cycling to the highest echelon of performance with the SRAM Red XPLR DUB Wide E1 Crank. As a premier choice in high-performance cranks, this setup is engineered specifically for the rigorous demands of modern gravel cycling. SRAM is a brand that never rests on its laurels. When they discovered a way to make their lightest and stiffest crankarms even lighter, they seized the opportunity. The result is a stunning masterpiece of engineering designed for the most discerning riders who refuse to compromise.
Through an innovative new manufacturing process, SRAM has successfully shed further grams from the iconic hollow carbon arms, creating a crankset that is a remarkable 29 grams lighter than its celebrated predecessor. This significant weight reduction is not just a number on a scale; it translates directly into snappier acceleration on punchy climbs, quicker response out of corners, and reduced fatigue on long, epic rides. The raw, unidirectional carbon finish is not only visually striking but also a testament to its lightweight, high-strength construction.
Engineered as a core component of the XPLR ecosystem, this crank is purpose-built for 1x gravel drivetrains. The ´Wide´ chainline is a critical feature, providing ample clearance for wider gravel tires, allowing you to tackle rougher terrain and muddier conditions with complete confidence. Whether you´re racing an endurance gravel event or exploring remote fire roads, this crank provides the stability and tire clearance essential for modern off-road adventures.
At its core lies the revolutionary DUB (Durable Unified Bottom Bracket) technology. This system is designed to provide the perfect balance of stiffness, low weight, and exceptional durability. The DUB spindle interface simplifies compatibility across a vast range of frames while ensuring a rock-solid, creak-free connection between your crankarms and your bike. It’s the worry-free foundation you can rely on to transfer every watt of power to the ground, no matter the conditions.
This version is presented without sensors, offering a pure, lightweight option for riders who prioritize simplicity and gram-counting. However, its forward-thinking design features the versatile 8-bolt Direct Mount interface. This makes it fully compatible with SRAM´s entire range of AXS power and non-power spiders and integrated chainrings, giving you a clear and simple upgrade path to a power meter in the future without needing to replace the entire crankset.
For the dedicated cyclist who demands the absolute best, the SRAM Red XPLR DUB Wide E1 represents the zenith of performance. It combines featherlight construction, robust durability, and intelligent design to create a component that will elevate every single ride.
