Appleman 2XR Cranks GRX Spider and Direct Mount Chainrings

Framebuilder Matt Appleman helped pioneer the recent shift in how we discuss crank length for different body sizes. The Appleman 2XR Cranks are manufactured and produced locally in Minneapolis, MN. The 2XR is Appleman’s unique and progressive vision of how componentry affects overall bike fit and rider comfort. New for this year are Appleman’s new Direct Mount Rings and expanded range of Crank Spiders provide nearly universal compatibility with modern drivetrains, including GRX.

Check out the new rings and spiders at Appleman Bicycles.

2017 NAHBS: Appleman Sprinkle Donut Disc Road

Oh, you like donuts? Do you like donuts a lot? Perhaps you have a stem cap or a bottle with a donut on it. In this world, there are people who are willing to commit to a donut on a t-shirt, and there are people who are so committed to donuts that they make their carbon fiber road bike one giant donut. This year at NAHBS, Appleman did just that.

How’s that for donut dedication?
