Ok, I really would like to know anyones opinion on this. "What is the Strongest, Most burly, jump off a cliff or 80 foot building to flat. Does not matter about weight.




Thanks you.

Ride on!

Definitely Deity. They also come in white which gives them superior strength.

lol @iggz.

Seriously though. Primo cranks are what you want for absolute near bomb-proofness.

Primo cranks are extremely strong. Most BMXers would agree. Mine have lasted about 3 1/2 years of gaps and drops to flat. I weigh about 200 lbs as well.

Wow, thats probably the best thing I've herd about those. I'm about 215, so I want something big nd heavy nd ugly, nd just strong to shit ahah.


And to the dude up there^^ I've also herd many good things about the redline devices. Very good prices indeed.

another vote goes to the primos for bombproofness. redlines are lighter and more than strong enough for most people, i run them, the arms are lighter, stand up to grinds and direct abuse better.

Primos thrive of a good beating! In fact, if you have them it's rude not to give them total shit Smile


I'm still a massive fan of Odyssey BMX stuff though. The 41 Thermal cranks I had on my dj bike were badass, and had a lifetime warranty to back them up. My BMX used to rock loads of their parts too and I never any any problem... and I'm about 13.5 stone.

I thought Deity just rebrand other brands parts? They do with their pedals anyway.

Normally I too would recommend a Redline product(raced Redline in BMX for more than 15 years)but I recently sent 2 sets of Device cranks BACK to Seattle Bike Supply because the spindle bsses weren't welded into the arm at the correct angle so EVERY time I'd try to installed a chainwheel, it would pull the chain wheel out of line and cause a TERRIBLE tight spot in the chain. Tried to install 5 different chainwheels before seeing the prob. SBS was VERY cool about the prblem and took care of me by setting up an exchange for dirrent parts but I WAS bummed not to be able to use the Device arms! Went with and stayed with Profiles!!!
