Product Description
e*thirteen Helix Race Alloy e*spec Cranks for ISIS Spindle Motor Systems - 165mm, 26mm Offset, Bronze
Upgrade your electric mountain bike with the stiff, lightweight, and beautifully engineered e*thirteen Helix Race Alloy e*spec Cranks. Forged and precision CNC-sculpted from premium 6066-T6 aluminum, these high-performance crank arms offer an incredibly robust, impact-resistant alternative to carbon fiber without the weight penalty. Purpose-built to handle the demanding, high-torque output of aggressive e-MTB riding, they feature a low overall profile and pair seamlessly with Helix Race e*spec Direct Mount chainrings to deliver the ultimate combination of premium trail performance and clean, factory integration.
This model is engineered for standard ISIS spindle motor interfaces, providing extensive compatibility across the industry's leading e-bike platforms, including Bosch CX Gen 4/Gen 5, Bosch SX, TQ HPR50, Brose S Mag, DJI Avinox, Yamaha, and Specialized Turbo Levo/SL motor systems. Featuring a 26.5mm offset, these cranks achieve an optimized 182.9mm Q-factor. This precise geometry balances internal motor casing clearance with a natural, ergonomic stance width that optimizes pedaling efficiency and maximizes control when navigating technical trail features.
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. The assembly is built to last with premium 7075 alloy hardware, integrated alloy self-extractors for effortless tool-free extraction, and an e*thirteen Adaptive Preload System (APS) adjuster for simple, play-free bearing setup.
Weighing 433g, these eye-catching bronze anodized crank arms are engineered to take a beating. The full CNC finish strips away unnecessary material to maximize the strength-to-weight ratio, while the included custom-molded protective crank boots act as a resilient shield against inevitable rock strikes and trail debris. Fully engineered for continuous, high-performance trail abuse, the Helix Race Alloy e*spec cranks are backed by e*thirteen's dependable 5-year manufacturer warranty.
