i can really feel the difference in stiffness and weight loss with the installation of the crankset and can't wait for the next race when i can really mash on them. with these cranks on, it has brought the total riding weight of the bike to a surprising 24lbs 6oz, which i am hopeful to say will help me out during the last 6 races of this over the hump race series.
all there is left to do know is order and put on the deore lx shifters and install the deore xt hydraulic disk brake set i have waiting in the garage - replacing the deore lx brake/shifter combo currently on the bike.
