Am after some new crank arms, now there is no lettering left and the crank ends are getting a bit rough on my '04 (bought '08) XT's I'm getting worried about how much life they have left on my main (FS) bike, I've also an XC HT I'm now short of cranks for I want to move them across to
Currently thinking Truvativ Stylo Team for £76 (880g), though I believe they come with the old GXP bottom bracket and the bearings directly on the axle has me slightly worried. I like the look of mirror black though, unless they wear silver a bit quick?
Shimano SLX Triple for £88 (889g), I like the (middle) chainrings, shimano BBs have last me about a year. My brothers set have worn a fair bit over 2.5years though (the square edged raised silver bit has rounded a lot
For the extra ~£50+ and 30something grams saving (most of which would appear to be in the alu/carbon/lighter outer chainrings) I can't see the point of going upto XT's, even if I like the colour
Anyone have any input or other suggestions?
