I'm getting some knee pain while clocking up the miles on my road commuter and whilst I intend to make a few changes to my riding position over this weeks coming commute to see if that will help, I suspect it's at least in part due to my short legs combined with 175mm cranks.

So I'm after a cheap replacement for my Truvative Touro 3.2 cranks. Spec is square taper BB with Shimano 8speed drive train.

I'm not after anything nice as my SCR is very much my commuter workshorse; that said, if there's a bargain I'd spend a few quid more.

I've found this so far, looks like it would fit the bill, though it has slightly bigger rings than I currently have:

Any comments or suggestions welcome.
Less internal organs, same supertwisted great taste.

    Stronglight or sugino (stronglight with another name I think) , got ours for touring from spa cycles, lots of other places though.

    You should be able to spec chain rings required too.
