We have to admit -- the idea of embarking down the random dirt roads we spot off of the interstate just to see where they lead enchants us. There's something about this unknown that is enticing, and even gives us a child-like nostalgia for the wild-west, frontiersmen, and explorers. While many of these roads just lead to pastures, fields of cattle and sheep, there is the odd road that winds you up to a breathtaking canyon overlook that rewards your senses.

The SL-K Modular Adventure Crankset uses a direct mount outer chainring, and an inner chainring with a 90mm bcd, with four chromoly chainring bolts to ensure durability. The inner rings attach to the crank with four bolts, as opposed to the 5 used in the gossam...
