The Race Face Cinch-System, that has won the hearts of the Design & Innovation Award jury already, is now finally available in lower-priced cranks like the Race Face Atlas. It does not only guarantee fast and easy chainring-swapping but also enables you to run nearly every existing chainring with spider-adapters.

Die vielen angebotenen Farbvarianten ermöglichen fast unendlich viele Kombinationsmöglichkeiten.
