Race Face Era Cinch Crankset

No, the crankset is sold as the crank arms and spindle only. You will need to purchase a compatible 30mm bottom bracket and a CINCH direct mount chainring separately.

The wear plate is bonded directly to the crank arm to act as a shield against rock strikes and heel rub. It prevents the carbon fiber from delaminating or cracking when you impact obstacles on the trail.

Yes, the Era crankset is fully compatible with 10, 11, and 12-speed drivetrains. You simply need to ensure you select a CINCH direct mount chainring that matches your specific chain type.

Race Face offers a comprehensive lifetime warranty on the Era crankset that explicitly covers crashes. This means if you break them while riding, even during an accident, they are covered for replacement.

The Era uses a 30mm spindle and the versatile CINCH system, which is compatible with most modern mountain bike frame standards. However, you must ensure your frame accepts a 30mm spindle bottom bracket before purchasing.

At 475g, the Era is quite competitive for its intended use in Trail and All-Mountain riding. While there are lighter XC-specific cranks on the market, this weight is impressive given the significant increase in structural strength and impact protection.
