Carbon Cranks

May 29th, 2007 | Posted by Smithers at 3:20 pm in Cycling Biz |

I am officially sour on carbon cranksets.

In one case they are way too expensive to be practical, in the other case they are just simply not durable enough to be considered reliable equipment.

I am not going to bag on any particular brand because they all fit into one of the two categories listed above.

I am going to continue with a set of carbon cranks on one of my bikes, but it is going to be the expensive set. On the other bike I am going back to Record aluminum cranks.

Maybe carbon cranks are the future, but they are not the present.
