Turns out these Rotor cranks are Track, not road and are not compatible with any road spider I can find.
If anyone would like them I would swap for a Specialized Power Saddle 143mm.
Or a 24mm 165mm crankset (not Shimano, something cool) that I could use instead.
You'd need to find a Track Spider for them to use them though. -

Copy your fit numbers as close as you can from the Kepler, if that is what you were bikefitted on.
Saddle positon should be set to be exactly the same. Height is easy to move over. The for/aft you can use a bit of string with a weight at the end and a ruler to find out the set back/forward. Then see how the front end feels and if you need to change it from what you had on the Kepler.
Changing my saddle height away from my fitted numbers is what gave me ITB syndrome for like 8 months.
Easy riding as pain allows should helps recovery a bit. Shouldn't take long to be back to normal :) -

And that was with a 32 sprocket on the back?
Tempted to give it a go if I can get these Rotor cranks working.@amey any chance you’d be able to send a pic of your Rotors as you have them setup? I’m trying to figure what I’m missing, other than the spider.
And do you use a standard BB with them?
Also what’s this business with a special tool -
I feel like further winterising my road bike by making it 1x.
Just feeling like something more minimal even if it is ultimately less versatile.
The more minimal I've been building my bikes the more I think I enjoy them.
Could be a terrible decision.How does 46 x 11-32 sound?
Mostly Kent and Surrey. Solo and group riding at about 27 - 30 kph avg.

I’ve kindly been given a set of these.
Not much information out there on how to get them correctly assembled.
I need a spider: 24mm for 4 bolt chainrings. There are some on Aliex from STONE or Pass Quest for a decent price. But I do not understand how they are attached to the cranks, I cannot make sense of it in my head.
And then from there I have no idea what other small parts are needed to make them work.Anyone with a bit of knowledge, please lend some help?

Mines a bit marked on the rails too, from thigh rub.
Ever in London? Otherwise depending on where you are I might be able to swing by if I'm doing road riding nearby :)
