Hi everyone, 

I have a pair of brand new, never used White Industries crank arms for sale. They are the 'road' version, in silver, square taper and 172.5mm long. I've had them sitting in my parts box for over a year for a project I now realize will never happen. Included will be the lock ring for the chain ring. These are awesome cranks, I have them on three other bikes!

I believe these are around $215 USD new. So how about 30 bucks off, $185 USD plus shipping? 

These have never been mounted to a bottom bracket and are in brand new condition. 


I'm running the same cranks on my Atlantis with a 44/26 chain ring combo, on a Phil 119mm BB. It's a great combo and works flawlessly.

What is your saddle height?

Thanks,

Idle curiosity only...are the chainring sizes same as on your Atlantis or something else? WI website doesn't say what's available or what the BCD is. Current price is USD 235. Doesn't seem excessive even new. WI seems to make awfully nice kit...I love those ENO SS freewheels and I'm looking forward to seeing what those hubs are like. I'm partial to nice hubs

Hi Ryan,

I'm not selling any chain rings with my cranks, just the crank arms. White Industries uses a very useful and unique design that effectively means it has no BCD. The large chain ring mounts to the crank arm just like a 'spiderless' system would. Then the small ring bolts to the large ring. They call it their 'variable bolt circle', or VBC.

In other words, you MUST use a white industries large ring, but you can use any five bolt small ring you want. I'm using a white industries 44t big ring, and a Sugino 26t small ring from Riv. Look close at some of their cranks and you can see that there is no spider, and the small ring is bolted directly to the big ring.
