Not top of the line today, but better than the old stuff nonetheless.
The person I was originally posting to before some folks became sidetracked was asking for suggestions of compatible forged cranksets to replace their R8000 or R9100 arms with.
I stand by my recommendations of R7000 or Rotor 24mm options.
Yeah the only reason NOT to use R7000 cranks is if you perceive the 105 branding to be inferior. But in this particular case R7000 would appear to be the best choice for functionality and long term durability.
