I have a ultegra double crank on my Specialized comp. and it is starting to look alittle worn. What is a good crank to replace it with. Something that will not break the wallet or that I can get off ebay would be great. Thanks

The sad fact is that Shimano cranks are hard to beat in terms of quality, weight or price (and I am a Campy rider).
Even the lower-end models are cold-forged for strength.
Their rings can be a bit soft, but its easy to swap them out for something better.
