Insight: Profile Racing – Column Cranks
There’s been a lot of focus on how brands can make BMX cranks stronger and overall better for the level of riding that has been going on these days. Profile Racing recently released their new 22mm Column cranks after nearly two years of development from the initial idea to being available for the world to enjoy.
We figured with the release, that it would be a great time to get ahold of Matt Coplon down at their headquarters in Florida where they’re cranking out these new cranks in-house at their warehouse. Matt came through with some awesome photos giving us a look at just how they make these new cranks and filled us in on all of the details about the cranks and why they chose to offer a 22mm version versus their traditional and beloved 19mm cranks they’ve offered for years. Let’s see what he had to say!

Insight: Fit – 24mm Indent Cranks
BMX cranks are one of the most important parts on your bike. Not only because they allow you to pedal, which is key, but they are where a lot of the force from impacts end up when you land. Cranks have gone from one-piece designs that you could bend by just starring at them to traditional 3-piece style we see today. You can’t forget the 2-piece and 2.5-piece versions that have surfaced over the years as well. Either way, there are a lot of things that have been done to improve the quality of cranks to hold up the the level or riding that goes on these days from dropping off roofs, sending it over 30 foot doubles to blasting a box jump or grinding down a rail.
About two years ago, Fit Bike Co. introduced their 19mm Indent cranks which utilized the 3-piece design with a 19mm, 48-spline spindle and indents on the arms to improve strength. The cranks are clean and built to stand up to some heavy riding… Except they there were ways to get an even stronger design. Recently, Fit released another version of the cranks that feature a larger 24mm spindle that ultimately makes for a stronger design without excessive weight additions to your bike.
I was pretty curious what lead them to stepping outside the box so to speak from the traditional 19mm and 22mm spindle designs, so I got ahold of Chris Moeller to talk a little bit about what lead to the design. Let’s take a closer look!
