Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

For the most part I think the current wheels designs from the Asian auto manufactures are hideous. For me the Shimano crank sets fall right in line with those.

The crankset costs more, maybe.
