The Sea Otter Classic is one of the most celebrated cycling expos and race festivals in North America, drawing over 70,000 cyclists, industry professionals, and enthusiasts to Monterey, California every spring. For CRODER Cycling, it's far more than a trade show — it's where we connect face-to-face with riders, dealers, and global partners, and showcase the high-performance, competitively priced cycling components that define our brand.
This April, CRODER is proud to be part of Sea Otter Classic 2026. Whether you're there to race, explore the expo, or source your next cycling component supplier — come find us at Booth S224.

CRODER Products at Sea Otter Classic 2026 — Booth S224
A. Spirit Carbon Crank — Ultralight Cycling Performance at 268g
Croder SPIRIT Carbon Crank from 145mm to 165mm
The Spirit Carbon Crank is CRODER's flagship performance component — and one of the most talked-about lightweight cranks in its category. Engineered from high-modulus carbon fiber, it delivers an exceptional combination of stiffness, low weight, and precise power transfer.
Key specifications:
Weight: 268g (crank + axle) — among the lightest carbon cranks available
Ideal for: Road bikes, triathlon bikes, time trial setups
At just 268g, the Spirit Carbon Crank is a genuine performance upgrade for road cyclists and triathletes targeting every gram of rotational weight. With 5 crank arm lengths from 145mm to 165mm, it's also one of the most size-inclusive carbon cranks on the market — engineered for riders across all heights and biomechanical profiles.
Come hold it, feel it, and test it at Booth S224. 👉 View Product
B. Oval Chainring — Gravel Cycling Efficiency, Every Stroke Counts
For gravel riders and all-terrain cyclists, efficiency is everything. The CRODER Oval Chainring is engineered to optimize every pedal stroke, reducing dead zones in the rotation and delivering smoother, more consistent power across the full pedaling cycle.
Why oval chainrings work for gravel cycling:
Oval (elliptical) chainrings maximize the power phase of each stroke while easing transition through the dead zones — especially effective on gravel terrain, where variable surface resistance demands smooth, continuous power output. The result: less leg fatigue on long gravel rides, and more efficient energy use over every kilometer.
The CRODER Oval Chainring brings this engineering to a competitive price point, making gravel performance accessible to a wider field of riders. Heading to Sea Otter for the gravel events? This is one component you won't want to miss at the expo.
C. Black-Oxide Ceramic Bearings — Smooth, Durable, Built to Last
Bearings are the invisible engine of every smooth ride — and the CRODER Black-Oxide Ceramic Bearings are engineered to keep you rolling faster, quieter, and longer than standard steel alternatives.
Why ceramic bearings outperform standard steel bearings:
Ceramic ball bearings are significantly harder, smoother, and lighter than traditional steel bearings. The black-oxide surface treatment adds superior corrosion resistance, making these bearings far more durable in wet or variable riding conditions — exactly the conditions you face on gravel trails and open cycling roads.
Key performance benefits:
Exceptionally smooth pedaling feel — noticeably lower rolling resistance
Reduced friction vs. standard steel bearings — measurable efficiency gains
Superior corrosion resistance via black-oxide treatment
Built for both high-speed road riding and demanding trail conditions
Once you feel CRODER Ceramic Bearings spin, there's no going back. Visit Booth S224 at Sea Otter Classic 2026 to experience them in person.
