Hiya,
Just looking a little advice on the various benefits of short/long cranksets. I'm interested in knowing what kind of rider benefits from a longer crank and what rider benefits from a shorter crank. Or, does the length of crank suit a style of riding (DH, Trail, XC), or even terrain, perhaps? I'm looking at XT cranks and have options for 165mm 170mm 175mm 180mm. I mainly do XC and I'm a smaller rider.
Thanks,
cogs.
