Duration Product Used:

Price Paid:
$150.00
Purchased At:
jensonusa.com
Strengths:
VERY minimal flex, durable bash guard, super-smooth hollowtech-II BB, looks cool on your bike, smells awesome
Weaknesses:
A little on the heavy side, but weight is probably not your main concern if you are buying it. Requires specials tools to install.
Similar Products Used:
RaceFace, Truvativ, and Shimano somethingorothers
Bike Setup:
mad parts and no bike right now
Bottom Line:
If you are a serious downhiller or freerider this crank is probably best suited for you. Also great for casual all-moutain and trail riders who ride aggresively and can make use of the bash guard.
