Truvitv is the only cranks I've ever used on my bikes.
Bike Setup:
2004 Norco Evolve, Mavic EX721 rims laced to XT hubs, truvativ bar, stem, bb, and cranks, axiom seatpost, Magura HS-33 rear brake, Hayes HFX 9 front with 6 inch rotor.....
Bottom Line:
Awesome crank, I've only ever trusted Truvativ cranks on my bikes since 2001, I've never had a problem with any of them. Being a trials rider I'm quite tough on my bike, and these cranks have taken a major beating since buying them. Just bought a new set after 2 years of terrorizing my last set. Awesome cranks none the less.
