I ripped the pedal out of the threads on my SLX cranks. Looking for something stronger. Trying to decide between Profiles or Saints? Profiles are almost twice the price. I have history of breaking cranks. Any recommendations? Thanks.

What frame is it? Does it require a small sprocket (chainring)? Whats the bottom bracket style and width?

Shimano Saint crankset was originally designed for 34t, 36t. Then a 30t narrow-wide chainring came out later: https://www.pinkbike.com/forum/listcomments/?threadid=193252

I would also will need a bottom bracket and spider. It's actually only about a third more though.

Bike is a Shonky ST, so 73mm bottom bracket.

I've decided on the Profiles. Was hoping someone would talk me out of them. Saints were about $125 less.
