LEXON Road Carbon Crankset

[Taicho_Cyclist]

Just received the LEXON R1 hi-mod carbon cranks today and they are really beautiful. Did a quick unbox clip just to show the item and weight, plus the accompanying Xcadey Powermeter which will be mated with the carbon cranks.

Seeing is really believing as the weight is amazingly light at 331/332 grams for cranks with spindle. Adding the alloy spider gave 372 grams. After replacing the crank spider with the powermeter, the overall weight without chainring bolts is 435 grams. Still amazingly light before installation on my TIME ADH23.

Cheers.

How much did you pay and where did you find them?

[Taicho_Cyclist]

The cranks are from Aliexpress for about nearly USD200 and the powermeter are about USD270 with discounts using coupons.

Interesting. Isn't that more of a MTB crankset? Is DUB for road too?

[toxin]

Dub is very much a road standard too, and it's basically a slightly aesthetically tweaked cybrei crank

I can't find them at all on ali, only under the elilee brand at double the price. They look great though, what chainrings are you pairing them up with?

[toxin]

Theres like 20 listings for these cranks and elilee is a completely different brand

[RDY]

Suspect IMO.  Why would you have that indent in the arm of the crank?  It looks like they tried to make it look 'cool' like a CNC machined alu crank.

I wish this came in 165mm.

[zerstorer]

4 sizes from 167.5 to 175mm

i plan to use it with a 1x setup for gravel.

Do these have any advantage over your normal SRAM RED 8-bolt Crankarms?
They seem to be the same weight and apparently only $20 cheaper.

While I appreciate the competition of Cybrei, Incolor and Lexon, am I jaded to expect at least a little more of a price gap considering the unproven durability and lack of local customer support/warranty?

[toxin]

they're a little bit lighter, the wight is quoted with the spider

Are these dual sided by some miracle? My DUB Zero PM only reports one side.

Are these dual sided by some miracle? My DUB Zero PM only reports one side.

They are spider-based (so measure power transferred from your crank axle to your chainring) so they give an accurate L+R combined power measurement but are unable to give independent power readings for the left and right sides.
