They look cool! Great for SS riders, or psuedo SS riders anyway, and folks who need more BB clearance.

I also, would love to hear of anyones experience on these. Are they any wider than a normal crankset??

the reason i ask is my brother has just purchased one the shift is so fast it just shifts straight away even if you dont pedal or pedal backwards.. the ground clearance is amazing you can rideover thing you never thought possable before,..

one complaint though when attacking a uphill you down shift it shifts so fast you feet flyoff the pedals and wack you got a tattoo on the leg... pretty good piece of kit though,..

it doesnt appear to any wider than a normal crank... just heavier.

went from this

not to sure it was fitted at the shop in whistler at the end of may,,, it could be used with a short cage derailuer to so could go even shorter,...
(thanks)
the bike is pretty dam sweet she bling bling got an amazing deal on it sept last year in whistler if you go at the end of the season all the shops are selling off bikes and parts cheap if you dont ask you dont get,... it really is a awesome bike,.. a tad on the heavy side,.. but is a true all mountain machine.
