Bikes: Too many but never enough.

I change crankarm length according to my flexibility.

In the winter/early spring, I tend to use shorter crankarms, more spin, less mashing the pedals.

During the competitive season, I use longer crankarms, better for a quick jump/acceleration at lower rpm cadence with more leverage.

For more casual riding, I ride 165mm crankarm, pedaling smaller circle reduce stress on the knees.
