Arrived quick, was able as a novice to install with a quick YouTube video and a bike tool kit. The cap bolts from the old pedal setup didn’t seem to sit flush in there so I took it to a local bike shop to order the right screw cap things. Two thumbs up

I had an old trek with Suntour Edge cranks and accushift gear shifters. Suntour went out of business and not a lot of stuff is compatible with it. These cranks fit/shift perfectly with my original cassette and derailleurs and now I even have an extra chainring to boot cuz my old cranks only had 2 chainrings and these have 3. Helps on the hills around here.

They are working just fine so far.

Not exactly a high end part. I think it is overpriced. I was worried my old one was 24 34 42T but this one swapped out okay. The threads used by the removal tool didn't match perfectly. I had to spend a long time carefully screwing it in without cross threading it. I wish I could just get new chainrings separate but this part is what my bike takes. It shifts well. It grips my new chain well. I'm happy. My old one lasted three years. I expect a similar life span. I ride everyday.

I had these on my bike a while back, and I couldn't really complain much. I got mine on Ebay and paired with a Shimano un-55 BB. They worked fine for about 4 months before a car decided not to yield. It's okay, I scratched his bumper. These are low maintenance, haven't fallen off, they don't weigh too much (considering the cost) and they're as stiff as you'd need them to be. Once the left crank arm bent (So far as to make contact with my chainstay) I decided it was probably time for an upgrade. I bought a Raceface Ride (2013) crank and bottom bracket, and I must say that this crankset was a bit nicer than the new raceface one. The bearings on a square taper bottom bracket are much smoother than a hollowtech one, at the expense of a bit of weight. In my honest opinion, unless you can afford shimano XT or Sram x9 or better, stick with square taper, such as this. This is a solid crank and has no flaws that I could find, aside from the apparent lack of car-proofing. I'd say go for it, unless you want to shell out $180+ for a high end crankset.For the record, if you wish to buy one of these, you'll need an 8mm allen key or a 14mm socket (depending on your crank bolts), and depending upon what kind of bottom bracket you have, you may need a BB tool and a 68x118mm or 73x118mm square taper bottom bracket (depending on your frame). It would also be handy to have a crank pulling tool to get these off for service/repair, and to get your old cranks off. In total, for tools and extra parts, you're looking at spending about $80, which is still less than a bike shop would charge you for the labor.If you have no experience in bike mechanics, it's never too late to learn. It's saved me thousands of dollars over the years. I spent about $150 on tools, and have saved so much because I don't need to pay shop mechanics! All you really need is a decent youtube guide, the right tools, and patience while you're learning the trade. It's all fairly straightforward.
