Easton Lite Spline Cinch Spindle

Lite-Spline (LS) CINCH spindles were designed with a shorter wave-taper interface in mind, accommodating a shallower receiving insert in Easton crankarms. Shallower crank arm inserts mean that bulk can be removed from overall crankarm shape, saving weight and increasing heel clearance. Both Standard and Wide LS spindles were created for the EC90 ALX crankset, and are not backwards compatible with previous generation Easton cranks.

LS Standard Spindle – EC90 ALX cranks with Shimano Road, GRX 1x*, SRAM 1x and 2x drivetrains
BB Compatibility: BB86, BSA68, PF30 68, BBRight, T47, BB386 EVO
LS Wide Spindle – EC90 ALX cranks with Shimano Gravel drivetrains (GRX*/Cues).
BB Compatibility: BB86, BSA68, PF30 68, BBRight, T47, BB386 EVO, BB92, BSA73, PF30 73
*Wide Spindle is optimized for both 1x and 2x GRX chainlines. Standard spindle is compatible with GRX1x and may be used if prioritizing Q-factor.
