Sorry if I'm bursting a bubble with this. But, as a recent convert to 200mm cranks, I can tell you that they definately "feel different". However, I've stated before, any performance difference between standard and proportional cranks will only be noticed if one is comparing themselves to a regular group of other riders or the clock on a given course. It's not as though one will suddenly be 20kg lighter or significantly stronger.
