[Review] RNC Lite Cranks

[b_m_x_X_x]

I've been riding these cranks for about 6 months now. They are flawless, and I'm ever so glad my PROFILE SS cranks BROKE! They are ever so stiff, a feeling i wasn't use to being they are my first pair of alloy cranks. They weigh in at only 31 oz... that's 10oz lighter then Profile's racing cranks. They come stock with a Ti-Spindle... whick adds to the "kick-asstic" of these cranks. I give them a 10 out of 10. They can be found at Albes, Empire, and that Dan guy's site for $150.

sound good,u ever had any problems with them?u run them with euroBB,how is the RNC eurobb?cons and pros of these cranks as i am thinking of getting some?

[b_m_x_X_x]

I use an American BB, it came with these ultra lite Euro BB bearings made out of alloy. I don't use it but my buddy Ryan does, he uses them on his Profile's, and i havn't heard him complain. I've never has any troubles with these cranks at all! You should get a pair.

how are the pedal inserts,well made etc...?

[b_m_x_X_x]

There aren't any pedal inserts...

the arms taper into a thicker and more dense aluminum at the end of the cranks, elimenating the need for a pedal insert.

hm..o am sure in a thing i read bout em it said they have titanuim inserts? any pictures of them on ya bike.Thanks man :D

You are thinking of the old RNC Cranks... they have a 22mm spindle, these have a 19mm... making them "lite". Even the new 22mm ones don't use pedal inserts.

hm...ok then,were are they aviable in the UK? or USA? thanks

[b_m_x_X_x]

They are at Albes, Dan's, and Empire here in the states. IDK if they are over seas yet... check www.RNCmfg.com and send Ryan a e-mail.
