I have a Truvativ Stylo, in the process of another warranty issue. I want to upgrade!

well, for fixed gear, many will say Sugino 75. I personally like Shimano hollowtech II or any modern road crank for stiffness.

I run Sugino RDs, I like them. I've never had problems with cranks, I've run a variety of shimano cranks before I got the suginos.

The Sugino 75's, while they may seem somewhat pricey in comparison to a budget crankset, are probably the best for your money. In my opinion at least.

if you're not trying to swap chainrings with your track buddies, stronglight track cranks have not done me wrong. and imo look mighty nice.

Campy Record Pista

I have IRO cranks on my SS, Sugino 75 for my Custom CX Fixie, and just got Sugino Messenger cranks in black, for my IRO build.

I haven't used them yet but according to those here who do, they are great and the price is right too- $55... Matching them up with the Messenger chainring and I'm good to go.

The S75 are just awesome.

You can go low-end, mid-range or high-end.

You can't go wrong with the Sugino Messenger Crankset. About $115. You can just look at them and tell they are better than the Truvativ.

got the sugino Comps Been ride'n like a dream

What kind of a bike is it? The Stylo's are MTB cranks, so I'd assume it's a mountain/cross bike, in which case most of the track cranks folks are suggesting aren't really useful.

Yeah sorry I should have said it was on a Bianchi wuss. Im fed up with truvativ. I have Truvativ on my fixie too and the quality does not impress me. Now I know what to upgrade my fixie to though. thanks. Peace.

Best crankset? Campy or Dura Ace.

The standard? Sugino 75.

The budget? Sugino RD/XD/Messnger.

The in-betweens? Miche Primato, Stronglight.

For MTB cranks, a lot of folks like the Race Face or Shimano external bearing sets. I've been running some old-ass Shimano Alvio cranks on a square-taper bb for the past 6 months with no troubles though.

The Sugino XD is the only valid option you offered here.

The only good truvativs are the external bearing/2-piece ones like the Rouleur and Elita track cranksets.. these actually kick major ass, but they're pretty rare.

Managed to pull an Elita track crank-set out of e-bay at a good price.
Comes with a 48T black chain-ring, but I have a 45T silver Suntour
superbee waiting for it to show up...

por que

My Pista came with Sugino RD's, and it worked just fine.

I now ride with a Stronglight...light and strong, just like the name says.

For prestige and old school aesthetics, Campy Record.

For absolute strength and trueness, Sugino Grand Mighty.

For a high strength to weight ratio and modern aesthetics, Dura Ace.

I saw a fixie built by an instructor at the United Bicycle Institute in Ashland, OR, and he or she put it together with all Dura Ace components.
Gorgeous, strong and light.

It's going on a mountain bike, which probably won't have clearance for a chainring that is larger than about 40t. Most track chainrings don't go beneath 42t, and the 130BCD ones will only give that kind of clearance in the outer chainring position, which probably won't work with the chainline.

GOOD LORD PEOPLE. This is a mountain bike. ENDLESS SUGGESTIONS FOR TRACK CRANKS ARE USELESS.

aeroplane- thank you!

as for MTB SS cranks, i will always suggest white industries ENO. paired with a phil BB, or a new WI BB its a solid setup. WI makes a couple BB widths to give proper chainline for WI hubs (113) or paul word/surly MTB/phil hubs (122).

these cranks are light, stiff, and look great. Ti chainring not included.

and the poster didn't state that until the 11th post in the thread. Heaven forbid someone actually use a truly meaningful subject line around here

anyone with half a brain knows that the Stylo is a MTB crank.

yeah, but is it a mtb for the road? I'm using a mtb with road cranks at the moment on the road.

Paul...
