I also use random semi metallic pads from AliExpress, whatever is cheapest. Been using them for a few years on mtbs with no issues.

I've also used those RiSK ones with no issues - in 12 speed, and 8 speed.

I could be intentional as having caliper mount in the front pushes the front wheel up into the dropouts, instead of pushing it down out of them. Odd to have it on the wrong side though if it's a custom fork.

I got the LM02 for 11 cad, a couple of weeks ago from pick3 section. Weight was accurate, and works well so far.

I had a set of the 155mm Cruz bike cranks for over a year now, they've worked and held up great to ss mtbing. The only issue is one of the pedal threads was a little rough, but broke in fine

I got these cruzbike 155mm cranks on my MTB, and they have held up quite well to singlespeeding where I put down a fair bit of torque.

Though they are actually hollowtech 2 as opposed to gxp as advertised. Cruzbike also also had some road options but I have no experience with them.
