TA Alize Cranks

Available crank lengths are 167.5mm, and 165mm only.

Alize Deluxe track crankset with 49 tooth 1/8" chainring.

The Alize Deluxe uses a 111mm JIS bottom bracket for a 43.5mm chainline, the track standard. For use on the road, I recommend the Phil Wood or the TA Axix. The Axix is made in a 110mm, which is close enough, since the chainline is adjustable.

 

Alize Light with Red Hegoa chainrings and optional Auto-Extractors in red.

This photo is here only to display the Alize chainrings. The Alize double and triple cranksets are no longer available. See the Carmina crankset.

 

If you get a Shimano Ultegra triple crankset, it will come with 52-42-30 chainrings. You can pay more to get TA rings in sizes you prefer installed on the Ultegra, or you can get an Alize instead, saving lots of money.

Alize Tandem with black chainrings.

I stock the tandem fronts (captain's) in 175mm and 172.5mm. I stock tandem rears (stoker's) in 172.5mm. Tandem timing rings are black or silver. The black rings have 39 teeth and the silver rings have 40 teeth. Drive rings can be black (in some sizes) or silver. We have very few Alize tandem cranksets in stock as of April, 2009. These are no longer made.

Weights

I get frequent requests for weights of various combinations of cranks and chainrings. One person wants to know how much a 175mm Alize with 52-42-26 rings weighs. Another wants to know how much a 155mm Zephyr with 48-36-24 rings weighs, and what the difference would be if he got a stainless 24 tooth ring instead of aluminum.

Well, I don't have all the answers, but I do have some weights for comparison purposes.

Alize Triple crankset: 172.5mm arms, 52-42-32 teeth: 760 grams.

Alize Double crankset: 172.5mm arms, 52-42 teeth: 670 grams.

Alize Light crankset: 172.5mm arms, 52-42 teeth: 630 grams.

The "Light" version of the Alize is so much lighter than the "Double" due to the use of aluminum chainring bolts and extra machining off of material from the chainrings.

Alize Track crankset: 172.5mm arms 48 teeth single ring: 620 grams.
