RaceFace Aeffect Crankset 175mm 9-Speed Aluminum RaceFace EXI Spindle

ItÔøΩs not their most elegant design and itÔøΩs certainly not their strongest. What it represents is excellent value from a company that consistently makes excellent cranksets. At this price point something like the entry level shimano deore or the SRAM SX series is comparable but the raceface aeffect is easily the better choice in terms of aesthetics and durability ( The only crank that offers similar value IMO is the newest truvativ descendant ) The aeffect is a breeze to install and compatible with both boost and non boost applications. IÔøΩve never had a single issue with mine (going on more than a year). I regularly catch a lot of air and take big drops. IÔøΩm not exactly a lightweight rider either (185 lbs). ItÔøΩs ÔøΩpinchedÔøΩ molded look wonÔøΩt win any beauty awards and itÔøΩs alloy is nothing special. But it works. Really well. YouÔøΩd need to spend about a third more to get into a decent hollow crank like the new shimano SLX but IÔøΩm sticking to this because it hasnÔøΩt let me down.

Works great. Does what itÔøΩs supposed to do.

This is the easiest crank to install if you have the right bottom bracket and it is totally quiet and stiff. Unless youÔøΩre an elite racer and the mfg gives you the titanium crank buy this and send it!
