Rotor Aldhu

[pushpush]

Was going to recommend Spider power meter like Sigeyi with white label.
But then I see Favero Assioma in the reflection...

Good eye. I'm a huge fan of my Faveros. I would give up on the rotor cranks before I abandon the pedals. I will try to ignore the cosmetics for a while and see if I can live with it.

Maybe 3d print a small plastic cover roughly as a structure.
Then cover the entire thing with vinyl wrap?

Kydex is another option.

Random question all. I'm trying to find another option for a 2x Cranket to use on my Cannondale SuperSix Evo CX (the one with the silly PF30A-83 (83mm wide) BB).

I currently use a Sram Force AXS Dub-Ai Crankset, but I want to go to 165mm cranks, which aren't available. (Sram has stopped making the Ai Crank altogether).

It seems to me that the Rotor Aldhu crankset, since its compatible with BB386Evo BBs, could maybe work? Can anyone help me confirm? I'm not sure if I could use the regular axle, the offset axle, or even an MTB Axle (are they compatible with the Aldu road crank?) and spacers to get the chanline in the right place?

I know Lauren DeCrescenzo ran a SuperX with a Rotor 2x Crankset in 2019 on a Cannondale SuperX (Same BB, although slightly narrower Chainstays) so that gives me some hope that it may be possible.

If anyone can help me figure this out it would be much appreciated.

Hello, can I put an CRANKARM ALDHU150mm C02-102-11010-0 with AXLEroad 30mm C02-102-98010-0 on a Cannondale Slice BB30 with 42mm inner shell?
What BB do I need? Thank you

You need a normal BB30 BB in the bike and then 11mm worth of spacers on both sides of it from the Rotor spacer kit https://rotorbike.com/en-eu/rotor-30mm- ... r-set.html. I have this exact setup on my TT bike (with 160 mm arms but that doesn't really matter for this question)

A question (perhaps already asked a lot on this forum)...
Is there a way to combine rotor aldhu carbon cranks with Shimano DA 9200 chainrings WITHOUT needig a PM?
So actually, are there aftermarket spiders available for this combo? Experiences? Pictures?

I notice the Cybrei cranks + spider are standard available with Shimano chainrings.
Someone has experiece with this?

Rotor makes a variety of (non-power meter) spiders for Aldhu cranks, including one with a Shimano compatible 110mm 4 arm BCD. Keep in mind that Rotor chainrings will fit both their cranks and Shimano cranks.

I use the Stone adapter spider w/ Aldhu Carbon cranks and dura ace chainrings. It works well but will require some adjustment to spacers to achieve the correct chainline.

The biggest downside is purely aesthetic. The sculpted shape of the shimano chainrings doesn't match the shape of the spider. It is completely worthwhile. The Shimano rings are a class above the rotor rings.

Are you sure rotor makes spiders for the aldhu carbon cranks which are Shimano chainring compatible? Do you have a link of these?

Thanks! that is what I was looking for, I know Elilee has a spider that potentially fits: https://elilee.com.au/product/elilee-cr ... hainrings/

But I guess this won't fit with the rotor crank ...

It turns out that while Rotor makes a spider with the same BCD as shimano, the chainring lands are shaped differently, so that Shimano chainrings won't fit without modifying either the spider or the chainrings. Without modification, Rotor chainrings will fit Shimano spiders, but Shimano chainrings won't fit Rotor spiders.

correct. Use the stone spider. It fits fine.

Anyone using the Aldhu carbon arms + the Rotor 110x4 (gloss or mat) spider and Dura-Ace R9200 chainrings? Any photos of that combination?
