Truvativ Elita Crankset
The Elita with our GXP external bearing BB system has been a solid package since its introduction. The Elita is forged out of our AL-6061-T6 alloy material with a design that is beautiful, strong and light. The addition of the Giga X Pipe offers a more durable bearing design and new lighter weight package. The The Elita 10 speed models come with our Power Glide chainrings. PowerGlide offer great looks as well as enhanced tooth profiles for quicker shifting and more precision.

Giga X Pipe External Bottom Bracket Bearing Assembly. While other systems rely on side loading the bearings to eliminate play, which causes premature bearing wear, the GXP system is different. The GXP system captures the left side bearing between the spindle and the left crankarm while allowing the drive-side bearing to float axially on the spindle, thereby eliminating the necessity to side-load bearings during adjustment.

The GXP system uses two bicycle specific cartridge bearings and eight seals for a smooth and long lasting ride.
