The Saltplus Manta sprocket represents a new generation of German-engineered BMX components. Saltplus is the premium sub-brand of the WeThePeople family, where every part is developed in close collaboration with professional riders, and where quality is not a compromise but a core principle. Its geometry and gear ratio are tuned to deliver precise response and consistent power transfer, even under the most intense riding conditions.
The sprocket is made from 6061-T6 aluminum, a heat-treated aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy with an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, specifically designed for dynamic stress. The T6 designation means the material has undergone solution heat treatment followed by artificial aging, significantly increasing its strength and fatigue resistance. It is CNC-machined from a single block of aluminum with micron-level tolerances, which not only optimizes weight but ensures exact drivetrain alignment—crucial for high-performance use.
The name “Manta” references the manta ray—an elegant creature that glides effortlessly yet possesses immense power. This sprocket shares that spirit: its clean, flat profile may look understated, but it’s built to handle the hardest hits without flinching.
