Swapping out XTR crank set
Need help from up-to-date techies.
I have a new in box S-works Epic with XTR 175 cranks. I want to swap them out with 170's. I'm looking for a shop or someone that'd make a swap but not comming up with anything. But on the other hand...I'd like to get cranks with a narrower Q-factor. And..I'd like to go super lightweight. Does anyone know what crankset this might be? thanks, Ron |

Q is always narrower with road cranks (chainstay clearance may be an issue), and you can save some weight depending on the crank in question. I was just looking at the FSA site, and they have an impressive line right now. Q- factor numbers and weights are given. |
