If it were my touring bike, I'd consider swapping out that crank for a 110/74 bcd crank. But then I might just ride the heck out of this crank before installing a new one.
. The bike has barely been ridden so the cranks are pretty much new. All the paint chips are from storage. The owner wasn’t able to tell me much in terms of ride quality so I was hoping someone on here would be able to share some info in that regard.
