from Broomfield, CO, USA Date Reviewed: December 8, 2007 Strengths: It's a crankset Weaknesses: I'm not impressed with this crankset at all. After one year I had to replace the small chainring because the teeth stretched and my chain would drop under high pressure. Naturally I had to fix this problem the day before a championship race and there weren't any bike shops that carried a Truvativ chainring. Shimano didn't fit, but after some obnoxious filing a friend made it work. I also had problems with the left crankarm bolt coming lose. One day the darn thing snapped off and I only weigh 150. Luckily I wasn't far from home and could work on my OL pedaling, right leg only.
