| Pros | Great stiff crankset. surprisingly light. shifting is not a problem. | | Cons | none | | Verdict | will never use another crank as long as im riding. it is a great crank for the price and you will notice the upgrade immediately |
| Pros | Light. Replaceable cogs. come in a 48 tooth and 44 tooth version. External cups for BB are easy to replace. Middle ring is made of a stronger steel composite for durability. STIFF. | | Cons | Not a thing! | | Verdict | This is a SWEET crankset that is deceptively light and stiff. Couple it with an XT derailleur up front and you will never worry about shifting again. | | Recommended for: Anyone |
