    As the title says, do you notice much of a difference when moving to a shorter crank length when it comes to pedalling and clearance?

    Dont know if you notice it, but obviously more clearance. Bio-mechanically i think its negligible (there was another thread on this). i run both, and dont notice tho.

    I went the opposite way (170 to 175’s) and reckon initially I did notice the difference. A couple of weeks in though you adjust. Then again it could all be psychological
