Anyone use a SRAM Rival Crankset?

Hi Everyone

I am a fairly tall guy (about 6'6") and I have been looking for inexpensive 180mm (or larger) cranksets. I currently have a shimano ultegra 175mm 53/39 so naturally I have been bidding on Ebay for used shimano cranksets. New Dura ace cranks are very far out of my price range ($400-500). SRAM makes a 180mm 53/39 that I can find new for $150. Does anyone use SRAM? Should I be concerned at the drop in price over shimano?

thanks
