Price Paid:  $0.00 at FSA

Favorite Ride:
BMB

Bike Setup:
3 bikes, All high end.. mixed with Shimano and Campy, Just bought topolino wheels.. am working on a review on them!! I use Ksyrium SL's and some hand built jobs with White Industries Hubs and CXP-33 rims.. good stuff!

Summary:
I broke the drive side crank arm of the FSA SLK mega exo carbon, for the SECOND TIME after only 2800 miles (just after I turned the bearings to powder and replaced them)... I specifically requested a METAL crankset, and the FSA representative, (who really was awesome, they have great customer service :-) ) hooked me up with the standard sized Energy complete with BB and new chain rings!

I have been beating the snot out of this crank set ever since! Crossing the magic threshold, I believe the new BB is much better than the ones that came with the SLK carbon set... Good stuff

Strengths:
This connects similar to the way the Shimano 7800 Dura Ace connects, only I think the spline FSA uses is much better than the one Shimano uses.. Much more meat for the Crank arm to grab hold of.

I have 3,000 miles on this set, so far, and no issues...

Weaknesses:
for a bigger racer with lots of power, this crank set is holding strong! No weaknesses to report..

Similar Products Used:
Shimano 7800 Dura Ace is the only crankset I have used that compares... all of the rest used a different technology of some sort thus not really being good for comparison..
