Crankset options 165mm?
« on: July 19, 2024, 07:36:22 PM »
Hello, curious about crankset options for my road bike build. Planning on Chinese groupset. Aware of Cybrei but curious about other good quality options.
165mm is a requirement.
Thank you

I have just installed Lexon 165mm cranks on one of my bikes.  So far, I’m pleased but will need to put some miles on them to have a final verdict.

Lots of options, or are you specifically looking for carbon?

I am open to alloy or carbon.
Would like to be at least Shimano 105 or ultegra quality as comparison.

somehow im the market for 165 4hole bcd110 cranks too..
For some reason r7000 cranks almost non existance, but theres some r7100 on aliEx at a lil premium.
I currently have r7000 passquest chainring. Im not sure if it fits nicely on r7100 cranks.

You should get a Magnene PES pwoermeter crankset.

@OP - this is what I use. The arm length can be adjusted to 160, 162.5, or 165mm

There are other lengths available too!

I also use those driveline cranks at 140mm for triathlon. Have a 150mm set on my wife’s gravel bike as well. Nice that you can get 8 bolt.

Damn, 140mm? That sounds crazy. I've used 155mm cranks and thought that was nuts.

155mm cranks? Sound like you're size deficient in several areas.

for alloy options i have used and recommend both xcadey cranks and fovno aurora

theyre both very light for alloy. i originally had the fovno auroras but swapped for xcadey because i prefered the 24mm spindle on the xcadey opposed to dub on fovno

Short cranks are often used for TT bikes
