SRAM Force 1 E1 12/13-Speed 1x 50T Aero DUB Crankset

This SRAM Force 1 crankset pairs carbon Force 1 arms with a 50T aero direct-mount chainring for 12/13-speed road 1x drivetrains, on a SRAM DUB spindle. SRAM aims it at riders chasing segments or racing time trials who want a single ring with an aerodynamic profile.

Available in 160, 165, 170, 172.5 and 175mm, with a gloss carbon finish. X-Sync wide/narrow teeth control the chain without a front derailleur. The chainline is 45mm and the DUB bottom bracket is sold separately.

Who It's For

• Road and TT riders on SRAM 12- or 13-speed 1x
• Riders who want a big 50T ring for flat, fast riding
• Owners of DUB-compatible road disc frames
• Consider a different crank if you need smaller gravel gearing or a power meter built in

What to Look For

• Spindle interface: SRAM DUB; bottom bracket not included.
• Ring and speeds: 50T aero ring on SRAM 8-bolt direct mount; 12/13-speed.
• Chainline: 45mm, listed for 135/142 road disc hubs.

Key Features

Carbon Force 1 arms. SRAM says the carbon crank is lighter and stiffer, which helps the bike feel responsive when you accelerate.

Aero 50T ring. The direct-mount aero chainring is shaped for improved aerodynamics, and X-Sync teeth provide chain control on 1x.

DUB spindle. Fits DUB bottom brackets; matching the BB to your frame shell is the key check.

45mm chainline. Road chainline for 135/142 road disc frames.

Gloss carbon, five lengths. 160-175mm, 9/16" pedal threads.

Rider Intent Summary

• Biggest strengths: Aero 50T ring, carbon arms, and compatibility with both 12- and 13-speed.
• Tradeoffs: Big ring suits flat and fast riding more than steep climbs; no power meter; BB extra.
• What makes it different: An aero-shaped 1x ring on Force carbon arms.

Victory's Take

We'd fit this to a 1x road or TT bike built for speed on flatter terrain, and Victory Bicycle Studio will confirm your length and DUB bottom bracket.
