Mountain bike trends come and go like the wind and one of the latest trends is shorter cranks. The theory is your regular 170s are too big - even though they come standard on most bikes. OK, people come in different sizes and we have things like different sized pants for a reason. Makes sense. One thing that is conveniently left out of the videos I've seen on this topic is the elephant in the room - the price! So, lets talk more about this mtb crankset upgrade.
