from Davis CA USA Date Reviewed: July 21, 2006 Strengths: Stif crank, strong arms hadle abuse of urban rides well. grinds and stalls dont phase the crank arms. Weaknesses: TONS!!!! I am now on my second set of arms, i had a set of 03s now 05s...lets start w/ the bottom bracket. The trivative gigapipe DH weighs a metric f**k ton. after several months on it i had play in the spindle and had crushed the sealed bearings. I replaced that one with a raceface evolve XC which is still running smooth as the day i bought it and i s a full 1/4 pound lighter. Now, the crank arms. If you like pedals dont put em in these cranks because you wont get em back. as of today BOTH my cranksets stole my pdals. The silver thread inserts for the pedals come out if you try to remove your pedals. If this does happen to you, take the thread inserts out, cover them ith loc-tite, put em back wait 24hr then try to take yur pedal out again. this has worked for me 25% of the time. I will be puting in a call to truvative tomorrow. I can't recomend this product to anyone especially if you are using a limited eddition celincki pedal that can not be replaced (or anything else valuable) sorry truvativ...you guys need to get your head straight. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $80.00 Purchased At: jensonusa Similar Products Used: Evolve DH, Evolve XC, Bontrager race, race light, select, Rie xc. Bike Setup: Giant STP, Pike 426, mamoth rims, singlespeed cassette hub, team risebar 2.5" rise, Easton Vice stem.
