With the humdrum of Sea Otter eating up journos' time, Gravity â FSA's, er, gravity orientated brand â thankfully gave BikeRadar a sneak peek at its new line-up of Grid products, which should be hitting shop floors in late May/June.
The Pacific Northwest-born Grid lineup is built for trail and enduro riders. The mid-level alloy componentry has been developed with the aim of combining lightness and strength without breaking the bank.
Grid MegaExo Cranks

First up are these new cranks, which use FSAâs MegaExo crank/axle/BB system. The hollow-forged AA 6066 arms come in 170 and 175mm lengths, and can be purchased with either single 30, 32 or 34t rings or 24/34 and 22/36 double options. The cranks are forged from a single block of metal for maximum strength-to-weight. Thereâs an anodised finish with graphics laid over the top, and a steel pedal insert to prevent cross-threading to finish the package. Claimed weight for the cranks is a fair 785g.
The single ring option comes with Gravity's Megatooth ring, with the now ubiquitous narrow-wide profile, but with longer teeth for maximum chain retention.
