Submitted by Lumpy a Weekend Warrior from iowa
Date Reviewed: February 25, 2003
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Price Paid: $186.00
Purchased At:gotta love QBP
Strengths:Note: this review is for the NEW Bones System1 crankset/chainguide combo. I just got this thing the other day. Indestructible, unbreakable, 40 splines on each side of spindle(makes all other cranks obsolete), STIFF, STIFF, STIFF. Oh yea, theres also 4(yes four) sealed bearings in the bottom bracket. Two in eack beautifully machined cup. They also had a good idea and put some cool plastic caps in the backs of the pedal bosses so dirt and water are less likely to get in(good idea guys).
Weaknesses:HA HA HA. Your'e joking right? UMMMM?? Nope, nothing sorry.
Similar Products Used:chromoly haro 3-pc on my BMX, various aluminum cranks.
Bike Setup:Rainier, azonic shorty, pro taper, sherman, xtr shifter, lx rear der, mrp bones, mavic wheels, and avid discs.
Bottom Line:This crankset is very much worth it. Even if you did have to pay retail(thank god i work in a shop). Not heavy at all. Especially considering the strength of this thing. I never thought I could tell that my alloy crank flexed at all. Then I got my Bones and now I KNOW they flexed. This thing is amazing. Finally the search for the perfect crankset is over. Bones is the way to go. That is unless you want more than one ring. All you do then is remove the boomerang and inner plate, slap in your other ring(s) and der. and your golden. MRP baby. All the way.
