Anong mga model ng Race face, Truvativ at FSA ang medyo ka-level ng Shimano Deore hollowtech crankset? (in terms of weight, performance, durability and price)
How does the Alpha drive, Firex or prodigy, for example, measure up against the deore in your experience? puro shimano pa lang kase nagagamit ko sa am curious to find out.
Shimano deore set inc. BB cost a little under 3k ata ngayon. if you have that budget what's your choice?

tama si max, hussefelt and holzfellers are more dh/ freeride... firex and stylo's are more xc... they're all expensive but they're all great performers

dude probably duon ka naglinis sa part na mabuhangin ang tubig kaya nagkabuhangin sa loob, or probably you rack more mile sa crank mo compared to mine.
ano ba result ng diagnose ni ed sa BB at hubs?

ok pag bibili na ko sometime soon I've narrowed it down sa dalawa: 2005 deore at firex SL. i mainly do trails and just occasional (at light pa) free ride and DH so i think ok lang. which one rules? sino panalo?
the 05 deore na nakita ko is similar to the structure of the LX crankset. may nakasubok na ba nito? is there a possibility na stronger 'to sa firex (lighter pa rin coz of its alloy rings)

since were into cranks..might as well throw this long question mark on my head. any say on the Raceface prodigy XC cranks? I found one color that stole my heart...red and i keep on dreamin bout it I'm using Bontrager race right now...it's one tough mama..though there's a drivetrain problem I always encounter...dont really know if it comes from the chainrings or the derailers? thanks in advance for the comments. mabuhay!

I found one color that stole my heart...red and i keep on dreamin bout it Seems this cranks have mixed reviews. Other's have good experience, others dont like Nairda's prodigy which went kaputs after he got the bike, we still dont know how long it was used by former owner. But he's happier now with his GOLD LX crankset. I suggest consider the Shimano Deore line or Truvativ's Firex. If you want a good bling, wait for the HONE, its a bit expensive than LX but ....oh well just see for yourself.
