As a powercrank virgin I thought, given my lack of coordination in other areas (can't catch and can't kick - hence I play prop), there would be a fairly steep learning curve but...
Suprise 1 - I am a smooth pedaler - even managed to crank them up to 150rpm+ for a couple of seated sprints.
Suprise 2 - while they definitely work more muscles (back, stomach and inner thighs - would you believe) they're not as hard work as expected.

Now I just have to practice my starts and stops before I brave London traffic with them.

Anyway the point of all this is to find out how many others have used powercranks and their thoughts on them.

Thanks

What are powercranks?
