| Pros | All I can say is that it is smooth, and solid. The crankarms are big and beefy. And the I-Lock system sounds good to. | | Cons | You really have to play with the shifting up front. The beefyness can some unwanted weight that is noticable. | | Verdict | This set is great. I would recommend it for not only freeriders, but also extreme XC riders and clydesdales. | | Recommended for: Extreme freeriders |
