SkyPivot——A superlight carbon crankset from China

[xsnailx]

Thanks - it is different from the 30mm version from what i see

Was concerned the crank arms might look a little bulbous but they suit the profile of a big tubed aero frame quite well.
Pleased with how the Rotor chainrings match with the spider but will be putting some Carbon Ti rings on in about a month anyway.

The arms go really well with the big tubes and the deep wheels. Great look.

Can you post how a spider interface looks like in this 24mm Version?

Sorry, was quite eager to fit it so it's now on the bike!

Best I can do is a picture from the instructions.

Is the tool used to tighten the chainring coming with the crankset ?

No it isn't and the tool that Panda Podium say you need may not be correct. Apparently there are two different types of lock ring used, one uses a 44mm 16 spline BB tool and the other uses an 8 notch BB tool.

I bought a 44mm 16 spline tool as instructed by Panda Podium but the version they sent me uses an 8 notch BB tool, great.

I think this looks great. Considering getting the same. Any additional faff installing them or can I literally just switch them straight out for my shimano crankset?? Had any issues with them?

Straight in, used one of the provided spacers on the non-drive side, no problems with installation.
Only issue I have and not sure if it is related to the crank or not, I have a slight oscillation in the chainrings. It’s difficult to measure but it’s about a 1mm swing at the teeth on the big ring.
Changed the outer ring to a Carbon Ti ring and the issue is still there, thought it might be a bent spider so swapped it for the Cybrei spider but that makes no difference.
My BB bearings are on the way out so I’m going to change those and see if that solves it. I’m using a BBInfintie 386evo to 24mm so there’s no issue with the BB itself.
The Cybrei spider matched really well with the Carbon Ti chainring but the fit is a bit loose compared to the Skypivot spider. Either the Skypivot spider is undersized or the Cybrei spider is oversized.

Thanks for the reply. Slightly disconcerting on the oscillation though. Hopefully it is your bearings then! Looks great with both the rotors and the carbon ti's.

A little update on mine , have been using it on my bike and it is fantastic so far.

Am using the 29mm spindle type together with a china made cermaic bb

I have received and raced my new incolor skypivot this week. My goal was to drop weight and keep using 24mm spindle so this cranckset was the best available choice. The spacer for the non drive side was not provided with my package, so that was not the best first impression. Despite that, I have to say the finish is good, the spindle measure 23.99mm spindle with my vernier, and the install was easy.

No feeling of any flex while sprinting at 1400watts at a race. Loved the 167.5 crank arm, trully a game changer when you can pedal in turn where no other competitor can, and its easier to maintain agressive position. I have to say that the look of the crakset on the sl8 is magnificient with the cybrei chainring (everything bought on pandapodium):

Doubt it's bearings. I'd look at the seat of the crank where the spider bolts on - see if there is a small imperfection there. If not, you can try "truing" the surface by identifying where the chainring wobble occurs (hopefully toward the inside) and lightly sand it, then do a trial run. Time consuming for sure, but it's the only way to fix it, short of tapping the spider with a hammer to get it slightly bent to suit the install.

Do they have a website?

I have the exact same issue with a set of Lexon carbon cranks. About 1mm of occillation when installed. Ran it that way for about 2 months. Finally decided to take it apart and see whats going on. Currently, I think two of the spider arms are not machined flat up to the shoulder. At least thats what I think is going on. I just ordered an Easton spider to see if it will be better dimensionally.
