MTBeing Date Reviewed: March 29, 2013 Strengths: Strong, well-built and very smooth with it's GXP BB. This crankset came oem on my Giant Trance X 29er and I'm quickly running out of reasons to depart with this crankset.

No. Bottom Line:

a Weekend Warrior Date Reviewed: November 1, 2012 Strengths: Not pricy. Not too heavy for the price spent, decent construction. I'm using it on a commuter, setup 2x9, and it just plain works week after week. It may not be flashy but it gets the job done. Been durable so far. Weaknesses: Works as advertized, I can't think of any issues. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Heck I'm just riding to work and back. Duration Product Used: 1 year Purchased At: Online Similar Products Used: XT, XTR, Race Face. Bike Setup: Novara E.T.A. hybrid REI commuter. Ok, it's a porker at 28 lbs with fenders and a Velocity Blunt SL wheelset, but it gets beat up every day on our poor roads and just keeps going.
