New Carbon Crankset - adjustable length, TI spindle

[Yunglord]

What spider interface does it use? The SRAM 8 bolts?

Rotor.

[glepore]

Would the adjustable interface be solid enough?
Scary to think if goes wrong while sprinting at high speed

Look used a similar interface for years. Whether these cranks are up to those standards, I'm skeptical. Zero feedback seller, and the price is probably less than what just the spindle is worth.

So, a new guy in the first message advertising a new store (less than a month fresh) with zero rating/feedback and the only crankset available with an inadequately low price for the carbon+titan combination? I guess nothing's wrong here, let's buy, everyone, right?

What size is the spindle?  The price is unreal.  I see that there are two Rotor based options for the crank.

Like I've said I've taken the chance given how cheap they are and that the store was responsive to my questions. If they don't ship them then I'll get my money back, so happy to roll the dice.

Only shared in case it peaked anyone's interest.

I have been reading reviews from the original Look cranks with this interface and they don't come across very well. I think most people get creaking noises. Look no longer sells but then again they were mad expensive for what they were

I ordered them as well, no risk with Aliexpress, so far they always refunded me when something went wrong... and even if I lost 40 CHF it's not the end of the world...

The link is still working for me, and the listing is still live - from what I can tell anyway.

I did do abit more digging and if click through to the seller information and then 'business licence' it has an exs-cycling.com email address listed. I'd be intrigued to see if there's a connection, as I know exs make solid stuff.

I've had abit more back and forth from the seller too, confirming torque specs and they've been answered quickly. They've mentioned the cranks will be shipped out in the next week too. Will have to wait and see.

I'm wondering if this is an 'early bird' price. I've picked up plenty of seemingly too good to be true deals from there.

Alloy, not carbon.

oh yeah sorry i forgot to mention that. though i was pointing out the adjustability of the crank length as an alternative to the OP
