Aldhu Carbon 1x Universal Tooth: road & gravel speed with minimalist simplicity

The Rotor Aldhu Carbon 1x uses a Universal Tooth (narrow-wide) profile for secure chain retention without a guide, combining stiff carbon arms with a 30 mm axle to maximize drivetrain efficiency. It’s a light, quiet, and responsive single-ring setup—equally at home on fast road rides or on rolling gravel terrain.

Key specs

  • Chainring sizes: 38, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54T (round or 12% Q-Rings).
  • Verified by Velo-Perso: 456 g (complete, 42T round); 491 g (complete, 50T round).
  • 30 mm axle: Standard for road; Offset for gravel (wider chainline, improved tire/chainstay clearance).
  • Drivetrain compatibility: Shimano / SRAM / KMC / Yaban — 10/11/12/13-speed.
  • Crank lengths: 155 / 165 / 170 / 172.5 / 175 mm.

Pick the right tooth count

Use case Suggested sizes* Typical cassettes
Fast/rolling road 46 – 54T Shimano 11-30/34; SRAM 10-28/33
All-round gravel 38 – 46T 10-36, 10-44, 11-40/42

*Adjust to your cassette, terrain and power. 12% Q-Rings can smooth torque and help on punchy climbs.

Frame & bottom bracket compatibility (30 mm axle required)

  • Threaded: BSA (68 mm), ITA*
  • Press-fit: BB386 EVO, BB86, BBright, T47 internal & external, PF30, BB30

For a drivetrain feel that matches this crank’s efficiency, we recommend CyclingCeramic:
BSA30 (30 mm axle)  |  BB86/41-30  |  T47/30 Internal 86.5 mm.
*ITA is supported when using a suitable 30 mm bottom bracket.

Chainline & axle choice: Standard (road) vs Offset (gravel)

  • Standard: road-biased chainline, optimized with 11-30/34 or 10-28/33 cassettes.
  • Offset: wider chainline for gravel (target ≈ ~47 mm depending on frame) and improved tire/chainstay clearance.

Drivetrain & chains

The Universal Tooth profile works with Shimano, SRAM, KMC and Yaban chains across 10/11/12/13-speed, delivering confident retention without a chain guide for most riding scenarios.

Verified weights (Velo-Perso)

  • 456 g: complete crank with 42T round.
  • 491 g: complete crank with 50T round.

Actual weight may vary with bolts, crank length and axle version.

What’s included

  • 30 mm axle: Standard (road) or Offset (gravel).
  • Aldhu Carbon crank arms: 155 / 165 / 170 / 172.5 / 175 mm.
  • Single chainring: round or 12% Q-Rings, 38–54T.

Velo-Perso’s take

If you want a light, punchy and quiet road setup (no front mech) or a high-efficiency gravel build for rolling terrain, the Aldhu Carbon 1x is a perfect fit. Pair it with a CyclingCeramic bottom bracket for lasting smoothness and top-tier efficiency.

Install tips

  • Select the axle (Standard road / Offset gravel) based on chainline needs and tire clearance.
  • Size your chain length on the largest rear cog for 1x.
  • Follow Rotor torque specs; use carbon assembly paste where appropriate.
