Here is my Norco and I am wondering which cranks to put on it.
I am looking between SAINT and RaceFace Diabolus. I want to know the popularity of these cranks amongst the farkin community(which majority of people like which crank)

And please state your opinion of the bike (Bad comments are much apprieciated :p )



SPEC:
Forks: 2005 Sherman Slider
Chainguide: Evil e13 chain guide
Wheel(rear): D321/Hadley/DT
Wheel(front): D321/Aireal/DT
Drivetrain: XT/Sram 7.0 components
Brakes: Hayes MAG
Cranks: Truvativ Hussefelt :? :shock: :evil:

before other people jump in and abuse you for not searchin prior to posting,
I'm going to offer a search as a suggestion as this topic has been covered in a reasonable amount of detail before.

Nice ride by the way.

my mum says im cool
I love it. THat purple kicks ass, and looks great with the sliders. Perfect spec choice on a nice frame. IMO saint cranks would look better on it, but you know, from a fashion point of view :lol: .

if you go saints (not sure about diabolus) you will have to shave away part of the e.13 bashy, where the crank arm goes past the bashy the crank curves in and wont fit. ive just done this to mine yesterday and done some other adjustments to the guide and cranks today also.

liking the pimp purple

perfect spec! except the aireal hub, i've worked in a bike shop and i've seen some of the horror stories when those aireals come back for warranty, the spoke holes streaching out and shit, they need to use harder materials.

Nice ride, cant wait til i get my cash up to build up my DH

Oh and go the race face, i'm quite the race face fan

Of course Diabolous will win - they have the pimp factor. But when you compare perforce of the two, they're fairly simular - than remember Saints are a bit cheaper too.
