Product: Stolen – Updated Team 2.5 Cranks
Stolen have updated their 2.5 team cranks. Here’s what they have changed…
“This past year we have only made a slight alteration to the right arm’s spindle boss to accommodate the slightly larger spindle diameter of the new 2.5 system. The new 19mm spindle is hollowed out to reduce excess material and does away with the right side spindle bolt altogether by seating the spindle completely to the arm. The 2.5 spindle will feature a single flush spindle bolt, M12 x 1mm, with a 6mm allen key broach.”

Sneak Peek: Mutiny – Cinch Cranks and Octad Spline Drive Sprocket
Mutiny have been on it lately with these sneaks peeks. This time around they are sharing their new Cinch cranks and Octad spline drive sprocket that should be available at the end of this year. The cranks appear to be a 19mm 48-spline 2-piece crank with no sprocket bolt bosses. I’m not sure if they will have right and left hand drive versions available since I’m just going off what I’m seeing in this photo. The Octad sprocket would be perfect for those cranks since it runs on spline drive… Just saying… Looks dialed to me. Expect more info soon!

If you caught our latest Drawing Board interview with Profile on their hubs, at the end they mentioned that Madera would be releasing some new cranks. Well, here they are. Fully heat-treated and a warranty to give you plenty of faith.
“Here they are after a long time testing and lots of prototypes. The HT cranks are made from 4130 Chromoly steel that is swaged to give the HT cranks their initial strength and then heat treated for a final hardening process. One of the biggest changes is that Madera is now offering a warranty on their cranks!
The new HT’s now incorporate a Limited Lifetime Warranty* against bending and breaking of the arms and spindle.They are available currently in Matte Black with other colors to follow.
MSRP of $142.95”
You should be able to pick these up wherever Madera is sold as of today. If not, have your shop give them a call and get a set coming your way! For more information, hit MaderaBMX.net.
