Product Description
e*thirteen Helix Core e*spec Cranks for ISIS Spindle Motor Systems - 165mm, 26mm Offset, Black
The e*thirteen Helix Core e*spec Cranks deliver an exceptional e-bike drivetrain upgrade, combining high-end structural integrity and refined aesthetics at an extreme value. Engineered to withstand the relentless torque and punishing loads of modern e-MTB riding, these cranks ensure you never have to hold back on your next gravity run. By blending a value-conscious production layout with robust construction, e*thirteen provides privateers and daily trail riders with a reliable alternative to premium-priced models without sacrificing trail confidence.
This model is engineered for standard 24mm ISIS spindle motor interfaces, offering seamless compatibility with the market's leading e-bike platforms—specifically optimizing layouts for the Bosch CX Gen 4/Gen 5, Bosch SX, TQ HPR50, Brose S Mag, DJI Avinox, Yamaha, and Specialized 2.2/3.1 motor systems. Featuring a wider 26mm offset (measured at 26.5mm offset geometry), these cranks are ideal for frames requiring maximum clearance around wide chainstays and chunky rear suspension pivots. This offset achieves a stable, highly balanced stance width with generous Q-factors depending on your motor: a precise 181mm on TQ platforms, 184mm on Bosch Gen 4 systems, and 197mm on Brose setups.
At a highly versatile 165mm length, these crank arms provide the ideal sweet spot for modern e-MTB geometries. They offer a more traditional, high-leverage power transfer feel that many riders prefer for out-of-the-saddle efforts, while still delivering improved ground clearance compared to standard 170mm or 175mm cranks. This helps minimize pedal strikes on technical, rocky climbs without forcing a dramatic change in your riding style or cadence. For ease of maintenance, the arms feature an integrated alloy self-extracting crank bolt system that makes routine home workshop servicing and installation quick, simple, and efficient.
Weighing 513g, these stealthy black crank arms are forged from high-strength AL 6066-T6 aluminum to ensure maximum durability against heavy rock strikes and accidental casing. e*thirteen packs this economic upgrade with premium attention to detail, including durable steel pedal washers to protect the spindle threads from high-load deformation and custom-molded composite crank boots that act as a resilient shield against trail debris. Fully engineered for aggressive trail duty, the Helix Core e*spec cranks are backed by e*thirteen's dependable 5-year manufacturer warranty.
