As above really, 11 speed. Looking to replace a worn XT chainset[ double] I like Raceface cranks but all their stuff appears to be 10speed. Budget of about £150.
Any recommendations?

Can't you just buy new rings for the cranks you have?

The crankarms are a bit of a mess so happy to replace the whole thing tbh.

Why worry about having 10spd cranks? It's all the same on the front. Raceface has a 12 tooth difference on the front as opposed to xt 10 tooth difference, so there's a bit more range from raceface.

If you do decide to just replace rings, I have a new set I was going to put on the classifieds tomorrow.

@ Nick, I didnt realise I could run 10 speed cranks/rings on an 11 speed setup?

I recently got a set of Middleburn RS8 X-Type cranks off the classifieds, they're very nice and it seems the system is quite adaptable.

Just a wee suggestion.

Some of the Cannondale SI ones look good too.

Alternative is to just look on bikebargains.co.uk and see what's on offer.

James Cycles had some SRAM 2x X0 in within your budget
