ethirteen Replacement APS Adjuster Kit Info

Replacement APS Adjuster Kit is designed to restore proper bearing preload and smooth operation to compatible e*thirteen cranksets. If your original APS adjuster has been damaged or worn over time, this kit provides a precise, factory-correct solution to bring your crank interface back into proper adjustment.

The APS system plays a critical role in eliminating side-to-side play while maintaining free rotation, and this replacement kit is available in versions specific to crank arm material. Riders can choose between APS adjusters for aluminum crank arms or APS adjusters for carbon crank arms, ensuring correct fit and function across the e*thirteen crank lineup. Helix Alloy cranks use their own model-specific APS system and require the appropriate version based on crank model.

For Gen3 Carbon Crank users, e*thirteen offers a smart compatibility solution. Gen3 APS adjusters use an aluminum outer ring paired with a plastic inner ring, and damage typically occurs only to the plastic component. In these cases, a Gen4 Carbon Crank APS can be used as a replacement by transferring the inner ring onto the existing aluminum outer ring.
