Hi there I am currently riding a 2013 Santa Cruz Blur with 175mm cranks. I am around 6 foot tall, I have been clipping my peddles on rides lately was wondering if going to a shorter crank arm would help me out

It would deff help but I am about 6'3" and really prefer pedaling on 175mm cranks. I would pay attention your shock setup too and make sure you arent sagging into your travel too early as your whole bike could be just sitting low at unwanted moments especially with Blurs VPP that tends to sag under heavy pedal input. Of course there is also the whole technique thing I know I have weeks where I just seem to find everything with my pedals.
