Does anyone what line (Altus, Deore, XT, etc) this crankset is? SHIMANO FC-TS91 44-32-22. I found it new in a shop for cheap some time back. Searches of Shimano web sites turn up nothing. Google turns up some bikes from German sites, but no concrete info. One PDF shows an exploded view and the date 2003. I might want to put it on my wifes new bike. Thanks.

The information I found about it lists it as NEXUS Crankset category "other"

Thanks. Where did you find this info? And what is the Nexus line? This is the first I have heard of it.

Well I guess she's getting the $90 used Ultegra cranks. The POS will go on the guest FrankenBike I guess... At $10 it not a loss...

Not where I am. They cost 129 Latvian Lats, or USD$253 new! One hundered Latvian Lats is 195 US dollars. It's criminal.

It's really a ripoff buying things here new. I try to buy used, NOS, or have friends in the States send me things.
