it pedals surprisingly well, the cranks are longer than what was speced though

175 spec’d on L/XL. My mates new L came with 175. No issue with pedal strikes.
And they pedal ok for a big bike, yes.

Not really. It’s not pedal strikes, or the lack of, that are my problem.
Is the pedaling feel in my head? Very possibly.

Throw some 170/165mm cranks on and you'll be stoked. I switched 170mm to 165mm on my nomad and the difference blew my mind.

The clash has an ~10mm lower bb than the craftworks, so 165 cranks should put the pedals in a similar position. Speaking of which, I’ve destroyed the nylontrax pedals from too many pedal strikes. Also managed to scratch my stantion.
On the plus side, my fortus rear wheel is great!
No flat spots and still true after 2 days at derby!

I've got some unused dmr vaults...but maybe figure out the crank issue first.

I’ve got pedals, but I’m putting on some cheap metal Wellgos until I have shorter cranks

Given your track record that probably isn't a bad idea.

A bit late of an update, but I figured out why it was skipping gears
The barrel adjuster assembly had snapped off... This is already the second warranty shifter for me
So now it’s got a deore shifter and mech and an nx cassette. Now also has a pair of 170mm cranks from @Labcanary.
Now I just need to figure out what’s happening with the rear brake, and then it will be at a point that I’m happy with it

Are you getting less pedal strikes with the 170's?
What's the brake you're using and what is it doing? One of the brake gurus might be able to point you in the right direction for a fix.

Yep, the 170s give me much less pedal strikes, 165s would be better again.
The rear brake just seems to be leaking, I think I might not have seal them up properly
Yep, your troubleshooting skills are on point

You will be able to superglue that back in place till you get a replacement.
One of my boys bikes needed that done... can't remember if I ever replaced it.

Crap-end SPAM shifter; seen shitloads of them break off the adjuster nub like that.
"Leaking brake" isn't a particularly precise description. Can you please be a bit more specific as to where it appears to be leaking? Also to repeat part of @Labcanary's questioning, what brake?

That was a microshift acolyte shifter. I have xt m775s brakes and I hadn’t sealed an olive right. Seems to have held up to the last couple of days at Derby/ St. Helens all good

Munted olives will do that, happens if the hose tip isn't properly seated in the lever/master cylinder when the compression nut is tightened.
