Value for money
I'd wanted a set of these cranks for years. When I finally could afford them they turned up and I was massively disappointed. The threads weren't cut properly, the chrome was poor and general quality was low. I sent them back and contacted Profile who showed no interest in my comments and no interest in trying to defend there product. Their loss as I then bought a set of Odyssey cranks which are far better made and after being on my bike for 4 years are still going strong.
these cranks are by far the best ive had they're pretty light and really strong! but they're a bit expensive but its deffonatly worth it i recommend these to anyone looking for a pair of strong light cranks!
i rode these cranks on my bmx and now im going to run them on my 24'' ns suburban build :) best cranks ever :) and especially with the ti spindle upgrade... well worth the money!
amazing cranks. they look awesome and dont hurt your ankes if you give them a knock best 3 piece cranks ever
These cranks are amazing. I have had mine for a little under 3 years, and have not had one problem with them. If you are thinking about what cranks to get, these should be the one's for you, you will not be disappointed
Bought mine with a titanium spindle from The Source at the beggining of the year and I cannot fault them! People may complain about the price, but like most things in life.......
absolutely brilliant.. had them fol little over a week, and i find them to be the best cranks i've owned... and at £130 they're not to bad value for money =D
