Question 1

What are the best speed cranksets to buy on AliExpress in 2026?

Accepted Answer

In this video I listed my Top 5 picks for 2026 from AliExpress, including ZRACE BLADE, GOLDIX, and RIRO RACER options. I focused on speed compatibility (10/11/12-speed) and the most common chainring and crank length choices. If you want the exact models, I put the direct links in the description.

Question 2

Which crankset is better for MTB 1x10, 1x11, or 1x12 builds?

Accepted Answer

For MTB 1x builds, I included the ZRACE BLADE crankset that supports 1x 10/11/12-speed setups. It’s listed with Eagle tooth style chainring options like 32T, 34T, and 36T, plus 170mm or 175mm crank arms. That makes it an easy pick if you’re building XC/TR/AM style bikes.

Question 3

What chainring sizes did Gobi Express recommend for these cranksets?

Accepted Answer

On the MTB side, I showed ZRACE BLADE options with 32T, 34T, and 36T. For road and gravel, the GOLDIX cranksets come in the common 50/34T, 52/36T, and 53/39T combinations. I like these because you can match them to your terrain and fitness without overthinking it.

Question 4

What crank length should I choose: 165mm, 170mm, or 175mm?

Accepted Answer

In the listings I featured, you’ll see the standard length options like 165/170/175mm for the road/gravel GOLDIX cranks and 170/175mm for the ZRACE MTB cranksets. If you’re unsure, most riders stick with what they already ride unless they’re changing fit on purpose. If you tell me your height and bike type in the comments, I can help you narrow it down.

Question 5

Are the GOLDIX cranksets compatible with Shimano or SRAM road drivetrains?

Accepted Answer

Yes—one of the GOLDIX options I listed is specifically described for Shimano and SRAM road setups, including 105 and similar transmissions. I included it because it targets the common 2x road gearing choices and is marketed as an ultralight upgrade. Always double-check your bottom bracket and drivetrain standards on the product page before ordering.

Question 6

Is the RIRO RACER R8 crankset good for a lightweight road setup?

Accepted Answer

I included the RIRO RACER R8 as a lightweight road-style crankset option with 170mm arms and a 50/34T chainring setup. It’s the kind of pick I’d look at if I want a lighter crank without spending big-brand money. The link is in the description so you can compare pricing and specs directly.

Question 7

Why are there two ZRACE BLADE entries in the Top 5 list?

Accepted Answer

In the description I listed ZRACE BLADE twice with different links, so you can check availability and pricing variations on AliExpress. Sometimes the same model shows up under different sellers or listings, and one can be a better deal than the other. I always recommend opening both links and comparing the options.
