How to recognize & disassemble your crankset<\/h2>\n<\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

What are the different standards of bicycle axles?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

The LIFT-MTB “V4”<\/strong> system allows you to keep your bottom<\/a> bracket and change only the cranks without disassembling or changing the bottom bracket, making the change of configuration quick and easy.<\/p>\n

If you want to quickly change your bike from one configuration to another, simply put on or remove the axle diameter adapter set that matches your current bottom bracket axle.<\/p>\n

The kit is delivered with a set of adapters, in order to transform the axis of the kit<\/strong> to all the standards of the market which are the following<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

We use high quality Chromoly steel axles 100% machined in France with a flat square<\/strong> footprint of 22mm Oversize diameter<\/strong>, and cranks with double clamping screws, it is a standard used on high end BMX cranksets so unbreakable!<\/p>\n

Not to be confused with the basic steel conical square<\/strong> bottom bracket axle with a small diameter of 12.6mm<\/strong>, as found on low-end bikes, which are generally unreliable or at least completely outdated.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

On a crankset
\n SHIMANO<\/strong>
\n<\/span> you just have to unscrew completely the two small BTR clamp screws, then unscrew the big torks key (usually the screw is in plastic) which is screwed in the axle.<\/p>\n

Axle size found at SHIMANO :<\/strong><\/p>\n

– 24mm for 100% of Shinano cranksets with through axle<\/p>\n

(this is the most common standard that represents 70% of sales!)<\/p>\n<\/div>
