Crank upgrade suggetsions
My crank on my crew district just gave out so I am looking for a new crank. Looking for input and am trying to stay under 150 and in black. So far I am eyeballing
All City 165mm
Andel (seems out of stock) 165
Leader Corsa crank 165
Any thoughts and suggestions would be great.

Not out of stock >>> Andel Standard track crankset | Retrogression
It's a great crankset at a great price. Also, get the BB >>> Andel 110mm bottom bracket | Retrogression

What tool would I need to change the bottom bracket by the way?

OK, I am down to two.
Andel
Sram S300
The Sram I can get through a local bike shop by Tuesday or the Andel I order online. I need help as I am torn. I saw the S300 and it looks super nice but I saw online that it has mixed reviews. Some people love/hate it seems like the negative stuff if mostly creaking. Any input on the two?

SRAM uses the GXP outboard bearing bottom bracket that is very poor quality. Also, it is 130mm bcd, whereas the Andel has a proper track 144mm bcd. Personally, I think SRAM components suck.
