e*thirteen Helix Core e*spec Cranks for ISIS Spindle Motor Systems - 155mm, 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 an ultra-short 155mm length, these crank arms are an eMTB-preferred solution specifically tailored to solve the problem of pedal strikes on modern, low bottom-bracket frame geometries. Shorter crank lengths allow you to spin smoothly through tech-heavy, rock-strewn climbs with a fluid cadence, drastically reducing the risk of catching a pedal while maximizing your motor’s power output. 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 a light 481g, 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.
