Road Bike Spiders FAQs

What makes Middleburn road bike spiders different?

Middleburn road bike spiders are CNC-machined for precise tolerances, low weight, and excellent stiffness. They are designed to deliver efficient power transfer and consistent chainring alignment, making them well suited to performance-focused road riding.

How do I select the correct spider for my road bike crankset?

Choosing the right road bike spider depends on your crank model, axle type, and bolt circle diameter. Matching the spider to your crankset ensures proper chainline, secure mounting, and smooth drivetrain operation.

What types of road bike spiders are available?

BETD stocks road bike spiders in a range of BCD options and configurations to suit single and double chainring setups. This allows riders to tailor their drivetrain to their preferred gearing and riding style.

Can a different spider change my road bike gearing?

Yes, fitting a different road bike spider can allow you to run alternative chainring sizes or configurations. This is useful for adjusting gearing for climbing, endurance riding, or higher-speed setups without changing the entire crankset.

Are Middleburn road bike spiders compatible with other crank brands?

Middleburn road bike spiders are primarily designed for Middleburn cranksets, but some models may be compatible with other brands that share the same interface and BCD. Always check compatibility details before fitting; if you’re unsure, speak to our expert team who will be happy to help.

Do road bike spiders affect performance?

Yes, a well-matched road bike spider contributes to efficient power transfer, accurate chainring alignment, and reliable shifting. Upgrading or replacing a worn spider can help restore drivetrain performance.

How do I install or change a road bike spider?

Installing a road bike spider involves removing the crankset, securing the spider to the crank interface, and tightening it to the recommended torque. Correct installation ensures stability, longevity, and optimal drivetrain performance.
