The Strummer CW-7 is a chainwheel / crankset with aluminium alloy crank arms, a standard 104 mm BCD, and a square taper bottom bracket system. The chainring can be removed and replaced as needed.
Chainring options
The CW-7 is available in packages with either a steel chainring or an aluminium narrow-wide chainring. The chainring material and size depend on the selected variant.
For high-performance use, we recommend the package with an aluminium narrow-wide chainring. If you choose the steel package, the chainring can be upgraded to a compatible aluminium narrow-wide chainring for the crankset, drivetrain, and chain being used.

Geometry and adjustment
The bottom bracket spindle length affects the chainline and the distance between the crank arms (Q-factor). Choose a spindle length that suits your bicycle configuration and ensure sufficient clearance from the frame.
