RomanC Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 So my current cranks are on the bent side now and I am thinking of getting new ones.What is the people's take on TryAll vs CNCed Echos?I've seen a few Echo/Zoo cranks which got twisted in a relatively short period, and I know that TryAlls had a lot of issues a few years ago. (at least in US) I don't have the money to get the burns, (although maybe used ones) but would like to get cranks that will remain straight for at least a year and a half.I am about 150lbs and most of the crank damage is due to failed taps.

ben.richardson Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 What about tensile's?? optimum steel cranks look on tarty bikes i no you live in the usa but its just an idea of what cranks are around that are strong and affordable.

TARTYWell even for burns I would have to get from tartybikes or chainreactioncycles. We don't have distributors for those any more. I've seen a few snapped Tensiles. I would prefer the crank to twist before they snap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
