Product Information

Full details

The Praxis Zayante DM CarbonX Crankset is designed for road cyclists seeking a balance of light weight, stiffness, and versatility. Its key benefit is the new LevaTime II shifting technology, offering faster and snappier gear changes. A notable caveat is the 50/34T ring set's incompatibility with the latest generation SRAM 12-speed chains.

Can I use this crankset with my existing 11-speed Shimano drivetrain?

How do I clean the carbon arms?

Clean the carbon arms with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Troubleshooting

Chain skipping or poor shifting

Ensure the chain is compatible with the chainring size and speed. Check chainring alignment and ensure they are securely mounted. Verify the rear derailleur is properly indexed and the limit screws are set correctly. Use a recommended chain (Shimano, KMC, or Campy).

Crank creaking noise

Check bottom bracket bearings for smoothness and contamination. Ensure crank arms are properly torqued to the spindle and that the preload adjuster is set correctly. Inspect pedal threads and interface.

Difficulty installing into bottom bracket

Confirm that you are using a Praxis M30 series bottom bracket compatible with your frame. Ensure the bottom bracket is clean and properly installed. Do not force the crank spindle.

Chainring compatibility issue with SRAM 12-speed

If using the 50/34T ring set, a different chainring combination or a non-SRAM 12-speed chain may be required for compatibility. Consult Praxis Works documentation for specific guidance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Bottom Bracket: Ensure you have a compatible Praxis M30 bottom bracket installed (BSA, BB86/90/92, BB30, PF30, 386EVO, T47, BBRight). The crankset spindle is designed specifically for this system.
  2. Chainring Installation: If chainrings are separate, mount them to the M30 Direct Mount X-Spider following manufacturer torque specifications.
  3. Crank Installation: Install the crank arms onto the spindle, ensuring proper preload adjustment according to Praxis Works instructions.

Compatibility:

  • Bottom Brackets: Praxis M30 series (BSA, BB86/90/92, BB30, PF30, 386EVO, T47, BBRight).
  • Chains: Works with 10, 11, and 12-speed chains from Shimano, KMC, and Campagnolo. Note: The 50/34T ring set is *not* compatible with the latest generation SRAM 12-speed chains.
  • Drivetrains: Compatible with Shimano (Di2, mechanical), SRAM (e-Tap, mechanical), and Campagnolo (EPS, mechanical) drivetrains.

Care:

  • Clean the crankset regularly with mild soap and water. Use a soft cloth or sponge.
  • Avoid high-pressure washers, as they can force water into bearings.
  • Periodically check that all bolts are secure and torqued to specification.
  • Inspect chainrings for wear and replace as needed to maintain optimal shifting performance.
