Newish ZEROING crankset - Ingrid clone

<< < (5/6) > >>

sandwich:
I think an aluminum spindle is fine in the right application.  Mine would be going on a TT bike which will rarely see loads over 1000w, and minimal mileage all things considered.  I wouldn't use one on a mountain bike or sprinter bike, but even that might be fine with a light rider.

Sebastian:
I’m bringing this thread back because I’m eyeing these cranks for the 11/11 sale. Does anyone have long term experience with these 24mm Aluminium axles? Have the issues with these been ironed out? I’m thinking of using these with BB30 bearings and use a delrin sleeve to save the aluminium axle from the inevitable wear marks that steel bearings would otherwise cause.

I’m no flyweight though. Around 82kg. So I’m a bit worried they might not last.

courdacier:
I think they're ok - no issues over the last 6 months. You definitely don't want to over-tighten those bolts.
They feel like both the self-extracting bolts and the axle were made out of some regular Al alloy - I had to grease several times to tighten them without squeaking.
Having said all that, I took them off my bike (200lbs) and gave them to one of my kids (80).
YMMV.

Did they feel stiff enough to you?

I had just ordered one of the Evosid branded ones, but it looks virtually identical. Does anyone have any experience with these?
