Recently bought a set of these discounted from CRC. Arrived with a press fit bottom bracket, does anyone know if they are fine to use with a threaded B.B? The non drive side crank arm has a seal/spacer which would make it sit out from the B.B.
It has the same length 24mm spindle as previous Race Face/ Shinano cranks.
Advertised as non boost- 9/10/11 speed.
Bought to fit on a 2017 Nukeproof Mega 290- non boost
Item has now disappeared from Chain Reaction
I run AEffects on both my fat bike and FS. The fat bike is a threaded BB into an EBB (if that makes sense), they are standard HT2 BB cups. The FS is pressfit but I've a Hope PF-HT2 converter BB in it so effectively it's a threaded BB.
Fit it and see - make sure you've a crank puller to get it off!
Normal Aeffect setup on a normal threaded BB is:
Driveside crank - Black ali spacer with 2x 1mm plastic spacers fitted, (thin lip faces the BB) - Bottom bracket - 4x 1mm plastic spacers - Non-driveside crank
To fine tune BB bearing pre-load, add or remove spaces to the 4x stack on the non-driveside.
To fine tune chainline, move spacers from 4x stack and add to the black ali spacer.
Thanks fellas, was wanting to find out before fitting incase I had to return them, was panicking they were cheap for a reason!
The fitting manual in on the RF site and is decent. There are simple to fit though once you have the correct order if parts.
