Author Topic: 3 piece cranks (Read 545 times)

Are there significant weight differences between forged 3 piece cranks and tubular 3 piece cranks? I've got a forged set and they feel quite heavy (fairly similar to the forged one piece that I am replacing) but I've never lifted a tube set.Are there any crank sets that are good but resonably priced-circa £50-£80 ? The bike isn't going to get used for seriously heavy jumps or street.

Trev (once again) is you man. He has some quality cranksets brand new for your budget.

The modern stuff is lighter I reckon, but is a pleasure to ride also

Cheers for the shout out Rob

I have a couple of sets here. Both brand new. Each £80 posted to RAD members.

I have a set of Primo Powerbites - These are 170mm - Comes with a US BB but will fit any type.

I also have a set of Ilegal cranks - These are 175mm - Info about these on their website - http://www.ilegalbmx.com/
