I haven't ridden them but I know people that have and they've never complained.

My buddy has a set and they feel awesome, he also weights like 230lbs and they hold up to his thrashing. He is a part destroyer and has gone through 4 sets of cranks in the last season and these are going on 3 months now and they are still mint.

I just did a quick search on Bikeguide. It's up to you. I'd still probably run them.

One of my friends snapped his after like 2 months.

Stick with Profiles they seem to have alot less problems, tried and true.

Powerbites, while strong are heavy and shaped weird.

They work for some but a lot don't like them.

biggest problem is that it is so flush with the pedal sometimes you are standing on the crank.

Yessir. Dual pinchbolts are good for hitting the little bone on.
