Hi everyone. First post on chinertown, must say, I like getting more insight on the product I buy as well, outside of the usual youtube channels.

Why Im on this thread. I bought a set of these lexon cranks, first without a powermeter.

First unboxing everything looked amazing, and weight is super.
I was super happy to see that I received one with a black bolt instead of the purple one.

I assembled the spider (thank goodness I had the correct lockring tool), but found it strange that there is a 2.5mm shoulder that the spider rests on, causing a gap between the crank and the spider. Austetically this does not sit well with me. With this I also tried installing the crank, but when I try to centre in in my frame, the inner chainring touches the frame before the arms are evenly spaced.

So I was a bit bummed about this. I did reach out to the store about this and thry ensured that this is their new design.

I have thus decided that I will keep the cranks, but the shoulder should go. I will machine it off and also shorten the crank axle by 2mm.(Ill post some after photos if this is a success.

Now a question, does the xcadey powermeter have this same offset/gap?
