The new Actofive Signature X crankset is the evolution of their flagship Signature crankset. Actofive is foremost CNC experts and use their day-job to produce some of the most radical and incredibly engineered frames and small parts. The Signature crankset was developed using the same mill-and-bond techniques used for their frames, but to create a DH-certified, but more specifically affordable model, Actofive created the Signature X model.
The Signature X model is made using a one-step manufacturing process instead of the infinitely complex Signature CNC crankset. Because of this simpler process, the Signature X model is more affordable.
Still made in Dresden. Still manufactured to the exacting standards all ACTOFIVE products follow. Still modular and still beautiful. The new SIGNATURE X crankset represents the next phase of ACTOFIVE’s expansion and refinement. With its solid CNC construction, this crankset has successfully passed EFBE’s downhill category-5 ISO certification, and while you may not be racing downhill, this certification ensures that the answer to the question “will it survive?” is a simple “yes”.
