Apex 34/50 Crankset Black

The Apex name is appropriate for this groupset for a few reasons. First, it's the high point of value in the SRAM road world. Apex utilized the same PowerGlide chainrings used on the Force and Rival cranks. It also only weighs 890 grams. Second, this compact 50-34 crankset paired with SRAM''s PG1050 cassette (11-32T) and the SRAM Apex rear derailleur offer gear ratios never before experienced on the road, yet it avoids the clumsiness and bad efficiencies of triple cranks. This means climbing hills and mountain passes will be easier and more enjoyable than ever before.

Tree Fort Take:
Aaron recently installed this onto his new Charge Juicer road bike. Being a future college graduate Aaron appreciates the quality that this crank has to offer, yet sill being affordable. It''s fairly lightweight, sturdy when pushed hard, and it shifts quickly. He especially likes the discrete SRAM logo.

• Black logo crankset
• Black Chainrings, same as Force and Rival
• Compact 50-34 crank
• 890 grams
