"Tolits, I promised myself that if I go with carbon cranks, it must be a STRONGLIGHT. I guess I'm staying with aluminium cranks, hehehe...." Hey, if you change your mind, Stronglight cranks ain't too shabby. They're super light and uber smooth (ceramic bearings and teflon coated rings), I've got it on my road bike.

Only problem the pulsion's finish is bare, no clear coat. I topped mine with clear coat to make the sheen so deep and eye catching. bee, What length do you require? I dont need my pulsion anymore and better sell it before I convert it to a MTB crankset. Used twice around 50kms only. OOPs! 175 is the length.

Schwinng brad, I love to have that cranks but it's way too expensive for this project that's why I'm staying with aluminium cranks. Yup! the teflon coated rings, I'm using a 32T on my Single Speed and I love it. "Tolits, I promised myself that if I go with carbon cranks, it must be a STRONGLIGHT.

I don't have money for this offer. No. Please, No. ;D ;D ;D

Jon, Makoy and ededed were right, it's less than 30K, 27.5K to be exact (landed price na sa Cebu) brand new. Shipping charge would apply if it has to be shipped from Cebu to Manila. I got my 'SEVEN' frame second hand, that's why it's a steal deal for the price I've told you.
