Yeah, but they only tested the smaller sizes and were impressed. I'll be giving them a shot for sure, also if you are needing short (165/170) cranks check out Bontrager King Earl, for the $$$ you can't beat them, they are really light also!
You can find Saints on eBay for 240$.

185 for the 83mm and it would still end up being around 240 after shipping + currency exchange

add in a couple more upgrade goodies to bring the price up to $230 USD (150 GBP) and you get free shipping tup

well, than again, it is more expensive for shipping to Australia... orders over 430 AUD

Please Rate
Im gonna get red straitline pedals for it and an e13 srs, lg1+ or ls1+ chainguide.
The 5050s have like 1cm of play and the chainguide on it is bent and the bottom wheel is gone but surprisingly the chain still doesnt fall off.
What color handlebars do you think i should put on it?
Also sorry for the mud.

8.5/10..
I've got a drilled DHR with a fox 40 RC2. It's pretty much a point and blow bike with a nibble rear end. The rear shock could use a rebuild...

It's taken some time to get used to but I'm really enjoying the mod I did to it.
after a rear shock rebuild i'd like to give my bike a 9/10 based on my budget ;]
