Yep. Been using them for around 6 months. Doddle to set-up. But then again, so are Shimano HTII cranks.

Finally got round to ordering mine....Will let you know!

Mine came with an uno ring. Easy to fit but a bit tight against the BB and so do not spin easily. Have not done anything about it yet as still a relatively new build and not noticeable when riding. Logically however this will shorten bearing life in the BB.

The tension on the BB is adjustable.
Loosen the bolt on the collar on non driveside, undo fully, the cranks should then float in and out of the BB bearings. Then take up the space with the adjuster.

Top tip!
I am so stupid that I had not even realised that the non drive side even had an adjustable collar. Of course it is obvious now that you have pointed it out. Probably in too much of a rush putting it all together!

watch the clearance between the end of the crank arms and your chainstays... and hope you don't have to deal with their customer 'service'
