DH crankset?
Hey im not to sure what kinda single sprocket crank i should get, this is for a demo 9 by the way...
I've been told the MRP cranks fit great on the bike, so do e-thirteen but they are ugly so no
Any other nice cranks? could i make a raceface diablous into single sprocket with rollers?

e-13 doesn't make cranks. They make a chainguide (and other components)...BLASPHEMY...ugly...arg...
There is no diablous chainguide (maybe 05) only crankarm and bb (and other components)
MRP is also a chainguide with no cranks. This one if fugly.
Evil with diablous is sick.

Actually Mountain Speed (MRP) make MRP bone arms (I think that's right). These are strong cranks.

They are too heavy for what you need. Are you going to be racing? If youre racing id get a Hozzelfeler or whatever, gigapipe teamDH BB, and an MRP(purely for weight). The Truvativ crank is pretty light, very stiff, and strong. You dont need something chromoly for DH....just adds extra weight. If youre just FRing, id get the Diablous crank with an Evil or Mr.Dirt guide.

The clear ring on the Evil chainguide systems are called Bash guards. The chainguide is the roller...BTW how much did this all cost you?
