to match the soul/soda thread and to go on which ever bike i choose/the pin falls in/santa delivers

i think the deus is a match for the riding i'm doing, but i loved the atlas when i test rode the bikes and i am a big boy and the term lightweight is concerning

oh btw the only reason im buyingthem is that CRC have em for crazy cheap at the mo, and i'd be a fool not to, plus is it like Shimano where they come with all the bits and bobs, BB's and such

Cheers guys

    The ironic thing is the less the crank flexes, the more you may feel the frame flex, especially a lightweight narrow tubed bike like the soda/soul

    dammit sonic you get everywhere :P

    need some different opinions......but thanks all the same, thats an interesting point i supose it stems from not being overly impressed with the XT set ive got at the moment but then, i'm not suure what to expect from a crankset....
