Middleburn cranks were first developed in the UK in 1991, and Middleburn continues to produce some of the finest MTB components currently available.

Since 1991 the original crank design has undergone many refinements.

The latest incarnations, the RS-7 and RS-8 are the result of advanced 3D and stress modelling techniques and ensure cranks that are not only amongt the stiffest but also the lightest and strongest available.

Middleburn's in-house manufacturing process allows them to constantly examine and test each and every crank throughout the manufacturing process – with quality control that is second to none!

Both crank models are drop-forged from high quality 7075 T6 aluminium; a CNC machining process then finely sculptures each crank arm into the unmistakable Middleburn shape.

Middleburn's sensible and clever modular design means that Middleburn cranks can be used either with their separate CNC machined chainring spiders, or with Middleburn's own UNO and DUO chainring/spider combinations. The spiders and UNO/DUO rings attach to the crankarms with Middleburns proprietary lockring design. This means you can change spiders without scrapping your favorite set of cranks; your Middleburn crankset becomes a lifetime investment for current AND future bicycles and riding styles!

Middleburn Chainring features:

Unique tooth profile for any given ring size…
Middleburn's advanced chainrings combine two major design features, firstly computer generated tooth profiles and secondly CNC machined tooth surfaces.

Hardcoat
10x Less Friction… 4x Wear Resistance…

Hardcoat Chainrings are layered with a technically advanced ceramic coating. This unique formula serves two crucial purposes: with a friction coefficient 10x less than hard anodizing it reduces chainsuck and improves shifting performance. Hardcoat provides up to 4x greater wear resistance than conventional hard anodizing, increasing the life of your drive-train.

Slickshift: Ramps and pins to aid shifting performance…

Slickshift chainrings. Using our precise system of ramps and pins to aid shifting performance. Evidence enough of the performance increase is shown with our 29T-44T Duo chainset, not only producing a dramatic weight saving but also providing a slick gearing range ideal for the UK terrain.

 

 

  • Middleburn chainrings are available in 4-Arm (104/64BCD), Compact Drive (94/58BCD 5 arm), ATB (110/74BCD 5-arm) and Shimano XTR960 bolt patterns.
  • All Middleburn Chainrings are machined from 7075T6 alloy and comply with industry standard fitments. This means they are compatible with almost any MTB chainset on the market today.
  • Middleburn offer two types of machining on their chainrings: Slickshift Chainrings have ramps and pins to aid the change from one ring to another, and Standard Chainrings don't have ramps or pins.
  • Middleburn offer two different chainring finishes:
  1. Anodizing, in black, silver, red or blue, or
  2. Hardcoat, a Teflon-impregnated ceramic coating which only comes in grey, see the chart below for availability.
