Hope Tech presents today its new line of cranks. With a new patented locking system for the axle to help alleviate the fuss of installation and removal. The cranks are supposed to be more ridgid and also highlight the ability now for a greater choice in mounting rings without spiders. All in all a beautiful piece of kit.
