Full Speed Ahead launched as part of its Gravity brand a new enduro-focused component family called Grid. Just as you’d want for such a demanding segment, Grid is designed to be reasonably light but DH-tough, but also with reasonable prices so that breaking a part won’t mean breaking the bank.
The Grid MegaExo crankset features hollow-forged aluminium arms with available single (30, 32, 34T) or dual chainring (38/24T, 36/22T) configurations, both with FSA’s proven 24mm-diameter bottom bracket spindle platform. Claimed weight for the double is 784g and 759g for the single, plus 98g for the bottom bracket.
The new Grid crankset will be offered in both 1x and 2x configurations
Complementing the Grid MegaExo 1x is a new chain guide, which uses an aluminium ISCG05-compatible boomerang and integrated polycarbonate bashguard. Cleverly, the polycarbonate upper and lower sliders can be rotated away from chain without tools to ease chainring swaps before starting a timed downhill segment. Claimed weight is 160g.
Up front is a new Grid aluminium riser bar with an oversized 35mm clamp diameter, 20mm of rise, and a choice of 760mm or 800mm widths. Claimed weight is 305g for the narrower version. Pairing with that is the Grid stem, which uses a big four-bolt faceplate, a 6-degree rise, and a blocky forged-and-machined extension available in 35mm or 50mm lengths. Claimed weight is 135g.
