Chromag Moon Saddle - $130
The company originally known for burly-as-hell hardtails continues to broaden its product line, as evidenced by the lightweight (240-gram) and low-profile Moon saddle. The Moon features a seamless leather top, light foam padding, titanium rails and a drop nose to aid those fore-and-aft weight shifts.
Truvativ Noir T40 Riser Bar - $172
Truvativ’s lightest riser bar to date now comes in a 700-millimeter width and weighs a scant 190 grams. The T40 is made from unidirectional carbon fiber and sports a “traction finish” in the stem-clamp area to help minimize slippage. The bar sports a nine-degree back-sweep and five-degree up-sweep and is available in both 15- and 30-millimeter-rise versions.
e*thirteen DH Crank - $300
E*thirteen brings its innovative crank and bottom-bracket design (check out the polygon-shaped spindle) to the gravity set. The result? A seriously light (870 grams with bottom bracket) crankset that’s perfectly at home on a downhill or freeride rig. The arms are forged 7050 aluminum, the spindle is heat-treated chromoly and the price tag includes the crank, bottom bracket and installation tools.
Answer Products Rove FR Pedals - $80
The Rove FR is Answer Products’, er, answer to the growing rider demand for flat pedals that don’t weigh a ton or smack into every possible root and rock on the planet. The aluminum platform is just 16-millimeters thick, nicely concave and loaded with 10 hex pins per side. Weight? An impressive 467 grams.
