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

Powercranks help please.

I've almost decided to buy a set of these. Does anybody here use them? Anything I should know?

Does anybody know where I can get a deal on a new pair? Ebay has em used, but PC just introduced a new version with a stronger clutch mechanism, and I'd like to have the 2-year warranty too.

Thanks
Brian.

Secondhand info, but some guys I know who race have teammates who rode them off-season but thought that they ended up slower during the season.
