The world’s first e-bike 3D-printed titanium crank

Cane Creek introduces their next offering of titanium cranks, the Cane Creek Electric Wings, to join their iconic eeWings. A crankset explicitly designed for the rigors eMTBs face, the innovative Electric Wings are 3D-printed from Titanium, resulting in an incredibly durable and lightweight product.

I have a pair of their normal eeWings, and I can vouch for the durability!

Some bling for your eBike! Break Rocks – Not Cranks

Ride More, Worry Less

Keep Charging with the Cane Creek Electric Wings. eMTBs are known for taking a beating on rough terrain, which can easily compromise the integrity of carbon cranksets. With the Electric Wings, riders can now enjoy peace of mind, knowing their cranks are up to the challenge. Whether riders are climbing through a rock garden or hucking to flat, the Electric Wings will give riders the confidence needed to tackle any obstacle.

Lightweight & Stiff

Weighing a mere 383 grams – Electric Wings are as light as carbon eMTB cranks while still maintaining one of the best stiffness-to-weight ratios on the market – Constructed from 6/4 Titanium

3D-Printed Titanium

Implementing advanced additive manufacturing techniques enable freedom in design, opening the door for Cane Creek to set a new benchmark for durability with a titanium crankset designed for electric-assist mountain bikes.

Titanium can be 3D-printed by sintering titanium powder together with a laser (or electron beam) to produce metal parts that are equally as good as machined models. The most common is the Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) 3D printer.

Reduced Pedal “Overhang”

Electric Wings minimize the overall size and “overhang” of the material located beyond the pedal insert. This revolutionary manufacturing technique and resulting design drastically reduce pedal strikes compared to standard eMTB cranks.

Isis Compatibility

Compatible with electric bike drive units that use an ISIS motor spindle, Electric Wings are the best upgrade option for performance eMTBs on the market. The Cane Creek Electric Wings fit Bosch/Yamaha, Brose, Fazua, TQ, Bafang, Specialized motors, and more, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of eMTB models.
