Title: OS Racer Crank Advise
Post by: Peter J on November 15, 2010, 01:05 PM

I've nearly finished (after best side of 18 months  :-[ ) my Ripper OS Racer, problem is I want alloy cranks on it  ???

I've got a set of Crupi (180) and a set of Maxy Cross's (175) I could use..............

Anyone got any advice or suggestions  :daumenhoch:

Or some box profiles and put a Ti spindle in , that's if the alloy requirement is weight related of course.

or just put some DXR 's on woth a bb convertor, moley wont mind  :LolLolLolLol:

 ;D

Just thought alloy ones looked better on a Ripper......I've tried a set of Mid School GT profiles and a set of twin pinch redlines....just didnt like the look  ???


At my size a few ounce on "crank weight" would make fooook all of a change.......  :D
