“Cane Creek Cycling Components has announced the upcoming release of both 1x and 2x crank spiders for 110 BCD chainrings. The spiders are optimized to fit Cane Creek’s eeWings cranks, adding more options for riders on the critically acclaimed titanium cranks.”
“The spiders will allow direct-mount cranks, such as the eeWings, to accommodate 110 BCD chainrings in both 1x and 2x configurations. 2x drivetrain configurations allow for more gear options during a ride while 110 BCD 1x chainrings are typically available in larger sizes than their direct-mount counterparts – both of which are highly desirable to gravel, all-road and traditional road riders.”
“With the addition of these spiders you will be able to run your eeWings cranks in configurations suitable for everything from enduro mountain biking to traditional road cycling,” said Sam Anderson, product manager for Cane Creek. “It adds more versatility to what is already an outstanding product and helps get more riders on these amazing cranks.”
“The spiders are fully machined from 7075 series aluminum with a black anodized finish and minimal laser etching and weigh in at 50 grams for both 1x and 2x versions. They will be available for purchase in December 2018 and will retail for $49 USD.”

Meh, another lost opportunity. Great product, but if the 2x spiders are limited to 110BCD only, they won’t allow installing chainrings smaller than 34T. Could be an awesome crankset if it came with a 110/74BCD spider.
Agreed, would be fab to see a spider that allows a 46 / 30 or 48 / 32 chainring pairing. LOVE micro-compact!
