Topic starter
 

Looking to change my chainset but the only one ive seen at a decent price has 170mm crank arms. All the bikes ive had, have had 175mm arms.
Will i notice a difference?

Doubt it but I have no crystal ball.

How tall are you and what's your inside leg length?

Might be that 170's will suit you better anyway quite possibly! Certainly if you're slightly under average height/leg length. Though of course if you're very tall with long legs, you might want 180's even.

The Highpath website has some info on cranklength under Cycle Information Cranks.
But its whatever feels OK, is right
