Strengths: Very light, very strong, super stiff.Weaknesses: $$$$$, don't make them anymoreBottom Line: The best road/cross country cranks money can buy. The new Record carbon cranks are a close second, but have not ridden those yet (they are $1,300 w/o bb)but by far the best XC cranks on the market, buy them if you can find a set.

Strengths: looks awesome !!!
stiff, stiff and, by the way, it's very stiff too !!!
this crankset is a masterpiece of workmanship !!!Weaknesses: None, besides the Coda rings...
Oh, perhaps the price...Bottom Line: I 've ridden my bike for over 5 years now, and this crankset still is PERFECT !!! When you look at it you can't do anything else than admire this peace of work: CNC machined, a perfect finish, very light and stiff like, uhm, I don't know what could be as stiff as this crankset...
I give it 5 flamin' chilis !!!
I can't really do the value rating because this crankset was already on my little jewel when I bought it. But I know these were REALLY expensive (the complete bike costed "only" two times the price of the crankset with BB...). Anyway, I give it 4 chilis 'cause this crankset is worth the money...
Favorite Trail: Anywhere
Duration Product Used: More than 3 years
Similar Products Used: Once you ride these, you don't wanna try others !!!

Bottom Line:
For all 13 months these Crankset have been awesome in every way.They are super stiff and very light.Also,they have been free of any maintenance problems ( except for a new set of bearings after 12 months-we ride in rain and mud here for 8 months of the year here ).Not to mention the fact that they look great. Anyone else had experience with these? And why don't more people/publications talk about them?
