IRO Cranks/Bottom Bracket...

What's the going opinion on IRO cranks and bottom brackets? My Shimano 600 cranks and BB are starting to wear pretty bad, so I was thinking about replacing them. I've got IRO hubs, and it was a joy dealing with IRO, so I looked at their cranks/bb. The price is right, that's for sure.

I'm pretty much an urban commuter, with a round-trip 34 mile commute I tackle 3-4 times per week. I also do 20-40 mile group rides as well once or twice a month.

Thanks!

They're not the best in the world, but you're not gonna break 'em. I've had the same IRO cranks for a year now on my bike, on which I commute and generally ride a lot. (see sig).
