I have got a Kona Jake 2010 bike which has a FSA MegaExo BB and FSA Omega Crankarms. Most of the rest of the stuff is 9-speed 3 ring Shimano Tiagra.
I have had no end of problems with one of the crank arms coming loose and this has caused one of the crank arms to get damaged. Also because the BB needs replacing and two of the chain rings are well worn down I thought that I should look into replacing the whole lot. So the question is what Chainset/BB combination would you recommend for a 9-speed 3 ring?
I would be tempted to go for Shimano as I have been having problems with this FSA combo. I so a 11 mile a day commute on this bike and so it needs to be fairly robust.
Thanks
