DMR Axe cranks have the strength needed for the biggest downhill hits combined with the weight of a race-ready enduro crank. As a result, we have created what we believe to be the best crank out there for mountain bikes. Using aircraft-grade aluminium Hollowform arms and a 30mm axle we have achieved unrivalled stiffness and strength without a weight penalty.

DMR Axe cranks feature Hollowform technology in the forged crank arms achieving unrivalled stiffness without a weight penalty. The DMR Axe LE is strong and versatile enough to fit any all-mountain, enduro or DH set up.

The DMR Axe features a sturdy 30mm axle to ensure there is no flex between your crank arms. The DMR Axe cranks are supplied as crank arms only so that you can assemble your cranks to your specification. We recommended DMR Blade Rings which are available in all common sizes, along with Boost and Standard chainline options. The DMR Axe crank is also available for DH spec frames with a longer axle.

As the guys at Loamwolf concluded, “I love the look of the AXE cranks, with a reassuringly large profile that’s suggestive of great stiffness and strength, and no sharp edges to hurt your ankles or pockets to catch mud. The stout looks carry over to their feel on the trail too, however they don’t pack an absurd weight to accompany it, sitting quite competitively at only a touch heavier than the Shimano SLX benchmark for the system. They mount up easily thanks to the single bolt design, and you can easily pull the drive side crank off for changing a chainring or more easily switching out chainguide spacers, which is a nice touch.”

We all love these things – they’ve been ridden at World Cup DH races, at Hardlines, and Rampages by multiple athletes – DMR Axe cranks are built like no other. No real surprise then that the DMR Axe cranks won the MBUK Best MTB Crankset for an unprecedented three years in a row.

Ride the best, forget the rest.

MEDIA REVIEW
MEDIA REVIEW
“After three months of use, the performance of the DMR Axe crank hasn’t blunted. The stiffness of both the arms, and the beefier spindle, is palpable. Overall, it’s made a big difference to the solidity of our test bike.”

MEDIA REVIEW
“Considering the huge amount of experience some of the other brands out there have when it comes to making cranks, DMR have done an amazing job producing the set that consistently impressed us most.”
