Campagnolo Ekar Ultra-Torque Gravel Crankset 42 Teeth

The Campagnolo Ekar crankset has been specially designed for Gravel. This single chainring is light, efficient and safe. It features US carbon cranks with AISI 360 steel half axles for maximum efficiency and resistance. The new ProTech technology combines the two Ultra-Torque half-axes inside the bottom bracket with a single strong screw. The oversized stainless steel bearing is located on the crank, attached to the half spindle, for maximum bearing efficiency and strength and to be easily accessible for inspection and maintenance, without having to remove the cups.
Four chainring options are available: Adventure (38 teeth), Pure Gravel (40 teeth), Fast Gravel (42 teeth) and eGravel (44 teeth). Their optimised design ensures efficient transmission and maximum chain reliability. Made of 7075 aluminium, these chainrings are light, strong and easily interchangeable. All you have to do is unscrew the four arms of the crank without dismantling the crankset. The four arms are asymmetrically arranged for optimum load distribution and have a BCD of 123 mm. Changing the chainring is a simple and efficient way to change gears when tackling different types of terrain. The 145.5mm Q Factor offers a comfortable and efficient pedalling style, whatever your size.
