Truvative crankset?

Anyone have any experience with Truvative Touro or Truvative Firex Trekking cranksets? I'm looking to replace the Cyclone cold-forged crank on my Fuji Touring with something better... How would these compare in quality?

Thanks!

TruVativ makes an excellent crankset. My only experience, however, is only with the Elita on two different road bikes.

TruVativ cranks are ISIS splined. That means unless you want to change your bottom bracket, or your current bottom bracket is ISIS, you will not be able to use the TruVativ crankset.

The Tru Vativ FireX cranks come stock on some bikes I sell as well as their X Forge crank. So far so good no one has really had any problems with them or brought any back as a return.
