I'm having the same issue, also with sram axs and a flat top chain. I tried swapping spiders to see if it was a chainline issue, but that only seemed to help slightly.


Anyone else have experience getting these rings to work well with 2x axs setups?

I've been looking at those cleats! Can you share more about how they feel different? Is the float less smooth? Do they clip in less reliably? I would love to save the money, but not sure how much I'd be losing out on.

It seems the store that sold them is offline. Also the direct link in my order history does not work anymore.

Try this one:

Are those hookless or not?

If it's these then they are clinchers.

I had the exact same issue and went down this rabbit hole a few months ago. The Wattshop cranks are definitely the best option in terms of achieving your desired fit via a crank swap.

I didn't end up going this route for weight and budget reasons, and instead purchased some FORM extender bolt plates for my cleats. They give you anywhere from 3mm-20mm of additional medial or lateral adjustment (depending on what model of bolt plate you purchase) which was enough for me to eliminate my knee issues.

hsaus's spindle swap idea is also probably just as good of an option.

Pretty obscure standard these days, weird choice. Apparently also Race Face uses such dimensions for their cranksets.

I actually think most of the cheap chinese carbon cranks are using this same lockring style. I know that LEESE uses is, as does the ROCKBROS crank, Magene's TEO, and even the super popular Elilee cranks. I'm guessing this is because they all come frome a common source or sources.

Anyone have any long term experience with these?

I ended up purchasing these along with a LEESE spider and some Pass Quest AXS chainrings. Based on all of the positive feedback for the Elilee, Cyberi, Riro, Rockbros, and other random DUB spindle carbon cranks, I figured these weren't too much of a risk.

Installation was incredibly simple as I already had a DUB BB installed, so it was just out with the old and in with this new crank! I've put about 200 miles on them now with no issues yet. They're plenty stiff and certainly much lighter than the SRAM Rival crank my bike came with.

Please ignore my dirty bike!
