Rotor 3D+ Mtb Cranks and Q-Rings Pro Review

Rotor is a company from Spain that manufacturers very high end components. They’ve been making waves with with their 3D+ crank system and Q-Rings and they sent us a set of of their 2×10 crank to try out. At any price, it is worth trying out. I’ve been using the 2×10 crank for about a month and it has been a revelation. First off, the cranks are incredibly stiff. They are able to fit a 30mm crank spindle on to my old Santa Cruz with standard bb shell. This spindle with these crank arms is stiff and it is noticeable. The system is light too at 690 grams complete with BB so it’s a few grams lighter than the Shimano XTR 2×10 crank and BB. Continue reading →

Strengths:    Light and stiff

Weaknesses:    Unique method to uninstall, seems like an extra step but I am sure it has to do with patents on other cranks.

Bottom Line:   
These cranks rock. I have them on a SS race bike. The cranks are light, stiff and look great. I am using them with ceramic bearings and Rotor's SS chain ring. Love them.
