If you are an avid mountain bike fan and enjoy going off road and taking to the trails, you know the importance of having heavy duty equipment on your bike.

A standard mountain bike might simply not be good enough for you, since it may have different elements that just are not constructed to take on extremely difficult terrain, or do not respond to your specific needs as a rider in all aspects.

If that is the case,  you need to look into upgrading several of the features of the bike. This does not necessarily mean you need to purchase a brand new bike, but instead you just need some general upgrades to take you to the next level!

One such upgrade you may want to look into is mountain bike cranks. These bike cranks are part of the chain system of your bike, which is also the Achilles’ heel of most bicycles. If you are going to sustain any sort of damage to a bicycle that is going to prevent you from riding it for the rest of your time outside, it is with the chain and crank. This is exactly why it is so important to upgrade your equipment from the factory features and go with the more advanced mountain bike crank system.

You are sure to notice the difference!
