Dale-Hill Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Love my 170 echo forged cranks. bomb proof. My mate has a set of trial tech and managed to strip the pedal threads. But his try all ones seem to be holding very well, and are light.And IMO I feel 170 is best on a mod (even thouhg i have 158 monty on my neon ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat Smith!! Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 If I had to get any of them I'd get trial tech, but there all pretty shit for threads/flex, try get hold of some cnc'd cranks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 They are CNC'd smithers. Just forged first. I'd go for either the Echos or the Trialtechs. Probably Echos I've had several pairs and they've been fine, and I think they look better.Don't put anything longer than 160 on a Mod, they feel wank with 170s, I'd imagine 160s too.

Nickkkkk Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 (edited) the length of crankarms is down to personal preference... nothing wrong with any of the forged crank arms, just keep tightening the bolts up if your running square tapers and tighten the pedals after you ride for the first week of using them...

weirdoku Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 (edited) My try all isis are lovely, 160 is awesome on mod. 165 makes the gearing feel a little too easy. I say 160. Edited August 25, 2009 by weirdoku Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
