7075 AL | CERAMIC | TITANIUM

These products have been created for people who love product design as much as we do. We’ve spent years developing the Teknika line and have obsessed over every cut, angle, and feature. Loaded with innovations like self extracting bushings, a boltless DM chainring interace, and our wedge constrictor stem clamp, these parts are literally lighter, stronger, and faster.

Even the hardware is custom made from the highest quality titanium. Every bolt and wrench interface (including the pedal spindles and crank arm caps) uses the same strip-proof T-30 torx wrench.

Teknika parts have been designed from the ground up to be as custom as possible. Along with assorted spec options, clients get to fine tune every aspect of the finish. Go bold or subtle; Choose matte or gloss; Match your bike or give it some pop.

Innovative design

Each Teknika product has unique, patent-level innovations like our self-extracting bushings, Bolt-less DM chainring interface, Constrictor stem system, etc.

Advanced materials

We use quality military grade materials. All of the Teknika products are machined from  7075 aluminum using custom made titanium hardware.

Fully Custom

Products this good demand a quality custom finish. Pick any Cerakote color and match or contrast it with a custom logo and titanium hardware color.

Cerakote

Teknika parts are finished with the Cerakote finish of your choice. Cerakote is applied like a paint. It was designed for the firearms industry and it’s ultra thin and durable. Choose practically any colors for your part and logo – matte or gloss.

CUSTOM HARDWARE

Even our custom made titanium hardware  enhances performance.  All our bolts use a strip-proof T30 torx wrench so you only need one wrench to install any of the Teknika products. This comes in handy when you’re working on your ride.

INNOVATION

We’ve focused on purpose driven innovation, not gimmicks. Take our stems for example. Our constrictor 1-bolt steer tube design uses wedges to actually squeeze all the way around the steer tube instead of just pinching in one spot. This means less bolt force is required to lock down the stem. It’s also about 20-40g lighter than a well designed traditional stem.

Cerakote Ceramic Coating

Cerakote is a high-end ceramic finish that was developed for the extremely high demands firearms industry. It offers industry leading durability, hardness, and scratch resistance, as well as chemical resistance, that will protect the overall finish of your bike. Cerakote is not prone to the chipping and blistering commonly found in existing paint finishes, and is not affected by chemicals such as road oil and tar, chain lube and brake fluid.

Cerakote Vs. Anodizing

Cerakote - Cerakote does NOT detrimentally affect the fatigue properties of aluminum alloys.
Anodizing - The anodizing process creates a brittle and porous oxide layer and tensile residual stress, which detrimentally affects the fatigue properties of aluminum alloys. This fatigue has been widely reported and documented.

Stock black/silver/gold

Our standard finish is black with raw silver logos and a matte clear coat. We match this with gold hardware.

Custom color options

Customize your parts with the colors of your choice. Pick your color and match it with raw silver logos or pick your product color and your logo color. You can also choose a matte or gloss clear coat and pick from black, gold, blue, purple, or ti gray hardware. SEE COLOR CHART

Matte or gloss

We add a Cerakote® clear cloat to further protect the finish. Select a stealth matte or a gloss clear to get the perfect look.

Go nuts!

We offer a solid range of colors, but if you want something we don’t offer, let us know. Cerakote® comes in a full spectrum of colors including metallics and iridescents. We have a few custom colors to choose from or for a little more we’ll work with you to do a fully custom color of your choice. Dream big!

T-30 Torx fittings

By machining our own hardware, we’re able to choose the wrench interface instead of using standard heads. This enabled us to use a T-30 Torx interface on all of the key bolts in the entire line. Crank arm pinch bolts, crank spindle bolts, all stem bolts, and even the pedal spindles. The benefits of using a nearly strip-proof Torx are huge, but we realize no one wants to carry a million tools so we kept is simple!

Choose your bolt color

That’s right, all of the Teknika products come stock with titanium hardware, but you can customize yours with an assortment of electrocoated titanium finishes. You can also choose to have your bolts Cerakoted. Time to have some fun!

Teknika Development

The Teknika products (1) start with a premise and concept; either something patently different or a twist on something that hasn’t been taken as far as it can go. Then (2) we spend a lot of time working this out virtually in Shapr3D which is a fantastic industrial design program that fully integrates with Solidworks and CAD/CAM software. Once we have something we believe is a solid concept, we (3) 3D print it in carbon composite with our Markforged Mark II printer. The print isn’t quite strong enough to ride, but we can mount it to a bike and check fit and function. From there, (4) we go to CNC machined samples to ride test. Changes and iterations are done throughout the process. Once we settle on a finished design, we (5) create final samples that go through a full run of industry standard testing.

Here are some images of the development of the cranks. Click here to see a video of a carbon 3D print

The Tor stuff is soooo good. It not only looks great, it feels great. You will definitely notice the difference when you put these parts on your bike.
