cranks compatibility

[ridehard]

Are all ISIS cranks cross-compatible with all motors?

Just bent my L/H PRAXIS on my LEVO and looking for a quick replacement,
I see some arms are labeled for BOSCH and some are for BROSE,
is there really a difference? (other maybe for the lock bolt size... is that M15 on BROSE?)

thanks

I replaced my bent Praxis cranks (ISIS) with Raceface A-Effect (ISIS) and they fitted just fine. I'd say anything with ISIS will work for you.

just as i thought. thanks.

i still cant believe how easily that PRAXIS bent
i had a friend bend his as well.

is that a common thing with these?

just wondering whether to get the same one again or try and get something more robust

Maybe bending was a good thing ? If it hadn't bent, there would have been a lot more force transmitted through to the motor/bearings/motor mounts/frame .. ?? (Trying to find a positive to your bent crank )

Quite a few people go slightly shorter with emtb. For me, I don't think you notice once you get used to it, which is normally a couple of km's. But it's not for everyone.

Ridehard I have bent two praxis cranks and a pedal in three too many pedal strikes! One pedal and crank on my previous ebike (Giant Trance e-pro which had 170mm cranks and a lower BB) and a crank on my new turbo levo recently.

One of the threads here deals with shorter cranks in great detail. As result of recommendations from Rob Hancill and a number of others I bought Miranda 150mm cranks. No doubt they will bend just as quickly as most of the alloy cranks out there, but they are obviously much shorter and I've certainly enjoyed a big improvement in ground clearance across the board.

Good luck.

Are the standard cranks on a 2020 levo 165?
