The Evolution of Revolution—Built for Gravity.
Born on the steeps and tested on the gnarliest lines, Canfield DH Cranks are built to handle full-tilt downhill abuse without flinching. We set out to create a crank that delivers maximum strength, uncompromising durability, and improved clearance—all while looking fast standing still.
Backed by years of real-world punishment, our cranks have earned a reputation for unmatched reliability. We’ve been perfecting short cranks longer than anyone, delivering a low-profile aluminum design with the shortest lengths in the game and industry-leading strength-to-weight.
Inspired by the forward-thinking design of our Crampon pedals, Canfield DH Cranks are forged for maximum impact resistance and available in lengths down to 150 millimeters. Why so short? Because shorter cranks mean fewer pedal strikes, better ground clearance, and more control in high-consequence terrain. They also allow for a more compact riding position, keeping your center of gravity low and stable when the trail gets steep and loose.
Available in flat black and silver anodized finishes, each arm features raised polished ribbing to reduce heel rub and stand up to seasons of abuse. Canfield DH Cranks—designed to take the hits and keep charging.

Love the short cranks! I have a 29'' inseam and went with the 150mm length. Went with the package and got the bottom bracket and chainring too. Easy install, quality components, and great value!
Hey John,
It's great to hear the 150s are working so well for you!
We love that you went with the full setup and got everything dialed in with the bottom bracket and chainring too. Easy installation, quality components, and great value are exactly what we aim for.
Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. We appreciate you riding Canfield!
Ride on!
150m cranks… sick, silver… sick…. Easy and well documented installation…. sick… skull graphics ….. yes 🙌… oh and about the best pricing you can find for purpose made legit stuff. They even called me to make sure my order was ideal and confirmed colors.
Thanks!!!
Hi Michael,
We're thrilled you're loving the cranks! Thank you for sharing your excitement and for highlighting our service. We really appreciate the kind words.
Enjoy the ride!
These cranks are amazing. I'm still working with Lance to figure out bottom bracket spacing, but went on a ride yesterday and PR'd Strava segments I've ridden 25+ times. These 155mm cranks are the first time I've felt like a bike fits me. (30 in inseam)
Hey David,
Hearing that the 155mm cranks are the first time you've felt like a bike truly fits you means a lot. Having a PR on Strava segments you've ridden 25+ times? That's a pretty damn good first ride!
We're glad you're working with Lance to get the bottom bracket spacing sorted out and get everything dialed in.
Thanks for trusting Canfield, and congrats on those PRs!
Keep charging!
Been using CB cranks for so , so many years. The latest version is Sahweet looking and as dependable as ever. Compatible with all drivetrains ive used. Always look for them as my first option for custom builds.
Hey Bryan, There's no better compliment than being someone's first choice. We're honored our DH cranks have earned a place on your custom builds over the years, and it's awesome to hear the latest version is keeping that tradition alive. Thanks for riding with us all these years. Cheers!
Installation was quick & easy. Rode them last weekend and they feel sick!! Look good on the bike too ;) 10/10
Hi Jorge, we're thrilled to hear you had a great experience with our DH Cranks! Thanks for your awesome review and glad you're loving how they look and feel on your bike. Happy riding!
Nice product for my mondraker summum carbon RR.It fit perfect.
Hey Manuela,
Love hearing that. Clean fit and straight to business on the Summum RR.
Appreciate you running our cranks and taking the time to share.
Cheers!
So, I took out my bike today and shattered all my personal Strava downhill records on my go-to trail. I've been riding this trail for over 10 years. What I notice is that I can pedal through the corner. Obviously, not the hairpins but most of the corners coming down on the local trails are not hairpins. This allows me to safely keep the speed up!
Hey Randy,
Love this! Breaking PRs on a trail you’ve ridden for 10 years says everything.
Being able to pedal through corners and carry speed is exactly what the 150s are all about.
Appreciate you putting them to work. Keep it fast out there!
I picked up a used tilt earlier this year. After riding a few rock trails with 170 cranks I thought I’d try a shorter set. The 160s arrived yesterday. The instructions on the website are clear and straightforward. (ditto for the bottom bracket installation instructions). I’m riding the tilt has basically cross country bike on some of the rocky trails in Western Maryland. The shorter cranks seem to make a difference- much fewer pedal strikes. The installation instructions are very clear and the cranks do what they’re supposed to do. Highly recommend.
Hey Reutebh,
That’s a solid setup.
Stoked to hear the 160s made a difference, especially on those rocky trails. Cutting down pedal strikes is exactly where shorter cranks shine.
Really glad the install process was smooth and easy to follow too. We put a lot into making sure riders can get up and running without the guesswork.
Appreciate you sharing your experience, the detailed feedback, and the support. Enjoy the ride!
