got a sub 24 and i run 165mm profile race with a 6" axle in a 20bb, also using oddysey trailmix pedals and a 28t profile wake. im 5 11 and have uk size 9 feet profiles are the best steel crank around and the rest are all imitations, i prefer steel than alu anyday too
24 Bicycles Toy 4 24" Wheels 180mm Profile's with Ti Spindle 36:16 Gear Ratio 5'11"
The Profile cranks are awesome and strong, they are a little weightier then some cranks out there but if you don't mind that then it isn't an issue. I added the Ti spindle which is a lighter option over the stock chromoly one.
wow a lot of 6'ft-ish riders riding 170's was going to try some 170's but didnt want to get them on my bike and go "f*ck they're too short,gotta take'm off sell'm and buy some others!"
