Just after the crank arms in 175mm, anyone know of anywhere?

Ebay?

Or buy a full chainset, then sell the rings and BB on seperately... Seeing as these are the bits that wear out, there's usually a good market for them. I know soon enough I'll probably be after some SLX rings and a BB, so will end up buying a whole chainset probably then selling off the arms I don't need.

I have a few sets of arms (including SLX) lying around - madness that when the chainrings and BB go, it's cheaper to buy a whole new chainset!

What mboy said. Full chainset off Merlin for £125, then sell the BB for £20-25 and the rings for £50-60 for the set.

I know I'll be needing a new middle and granny for XT770 by the end of the year. If you were getting XT770s I'd have the 3 rings off you for £50 😉

Thanks for the responses everyone; I think I may go down this route and buy the full chainset. It just seems a bit silly that you cant buy them individually.
