OneUp Components just posted this teaser on Facebook, but they’re not saying much other than letting us know there’s a release date coming soon and that they’ll have options for plenty of crankset brands. And maybe a few new ones.

Looks like Wolftooths “Camo” but from oneup. Smart move.

Is that just a chainring that can fit either, Cinch or 76BCD (XX1 4-bolt) with the same one design?

So it’s basically Wolftooth CAMO. Those two companies mirror each other so much.

That was my exact thought when I saw it yesterday.

Shouldn’t it be Switch Infinity?!

Crossing my fingers for a quick release CR. Just rotate the CR clockwise relative to the spider and it is released.

Just don’t try it on a fixed gear.

Next year they’ll release their own crankset with a built in spider and we’ll be back at square one!

Their cranks will probably come with the latest BB design I’ve been hearing about. Something involving threads?

This is what I do not understand about Wolftooth’s CAMO system (or OneUp’s). Why purchase a crank with a spider, just to remove the stock spider and replace it with one with a different BCD?

The stock XX1 or X01 spiders were similar in application (chainring bolt threads into the chainring vs. bolts threading into the spider). Each allowed chainring tooth counts down to 26t & 28t respectively. I understand that this required two different chainring BCD’s which was a crappy move on SRAM’s part.
