FSA K-force Team Edition chainset

- £683, windwave.co.uk

The latest addition to FSA’S K-force Light range is this Team Edition chainset, showing off the heights of the Italian brand’s carbon fibre and alloy technology. As you’d expect, it’s super-lightweigh­t and extra stiff. This is achieved not just through the use of carbon fibre but also thanks to the monocoque

Hollow 3K arms that cut down on material without underminin­g stiffness, while adding to the product’s aesthetic value with that woven carbon finish.

The Cnc-machined alloy parts include the one-piece spider and chainrings, and the 30mm

BB386EVO spindle that maximises its adaptabili­ty for ‘nearly all bicycle frames’. That adds up to one of the lightest chainsets on the market at a claimed 556g for the 50/34t version.

FSA also offers the K-force

Team Edition in a wide range of other chainring combinatio­ns and it is available to suit both 11- and

12-speed systems.
