Suggestions for crankset
« on: April 19, 2025, 12:14:13 AM »
I would like to try 165mm cranks and was wondering what the go to chinese crankset is for a 24mm spindle and BSA bb bike.

Shouldn weight a ton, shouldnt cost to much and doesnt need to be carbon at all.

I would prefer compatibility with shimano chainrings but it is no must.

Can you give me some suggestions.

I think  you know what’s available

Cybrei  (I have)
Elilee
Sprill (PassQuest
Lexon
XM Carbonspeed
Riro
Leese
Rockbros
DFS Carbon (which I have bought 24mm spindle Titanium 165mm)


What is it  you’re looking for in particular about a crank?
Quality without a doubt go for  Cybrei.
I have bought DFS Carbon as i am doing a budget build and well I am not sure quality.
But I should recieve it in a few weeks they are not the cheapest on the list but there is not much in the prices.
But they are all very generic in my opinion I don’t think there is much between the cheaper brands.

If you're in the USA i have a pair of takeoff Senix (Sensah) cranks, 165, 50/34 direct mount (sram 3 bolt) that while alloy are under 800g w/ rings (like 780). Unused, they came on my x68 but I had a quarq here. You can have them for $15 plus postage...

Quick question, Leese and Rockbros are available in DUB, but in 24mm?
XM Carbonspeed is working on a 24mm titanium axle, but first release is for DUB, correct?
