SRAM XX1 Eagle AXS Crank Arm Assembly
Best lightweight upgrade for competitive cross country mountain bikers.
This is the gold standard for riders who prioritize stiffness-to-weight ratios above all else. By stripping away the bottom bracket and chainrings, it offers a blank canvas for a custom drivetrain build, though you’ll need to commit to a specific 8-bolt interface to make it work.
