Who's using 155mm cranks?

I remember reading that the 155 was Hope's best selling crank length so there must be loads of them out there. I don't think I've seen any in real life. I also can't find any used ones for sale so people are probably keeping them. Who's enjoying them? Who's hated them? I want them for my bikepark/uplift bike which doesn't really get pedalled around on big days out. Pure curiosity really but I'm hoping a squarer stance on the bike might help with a motobike related hip injury which aches when I'm squatting on big descents all day long. Also, I built the bike with some old OEM 175mm SLX cranks which are perfectly functional but I never would have chosen that length. Also, this is a good price isn't it? I've never seen them discounted this much.

Holy thread resurrection.

Since I posted this thread over a year ago I've been happy with my purchase. I did 2 weeks in and around Morzine and half a dozen Welsh uplift weekends with zero issues.

The cranks took absolutely no getting used to, they just feel normal. The Rimpact works as advertised and I've written about it on other threads.

I've been neglecting this bike this year, I need to get out on it ASAP.
