Strengths: Crank arms stiff, excellent power transfer. Very durable so far.Weaknesses: None noted yet.Bottom Line: The FSA Pro Team Issue was included on my Specialized Sequoia Pro. I have riddine the bike for 4+ years [about 3,000 miles]. The unit has performed flawlessly. No problems whatsoever. Execellent power transfer on even steep climbs. I am a heavy rider [190 lbs.] and have not managed to break the crankarms. Will buy another FSA product.
Favorite Ride: Geiger grade loop [52 miles]
Purchased At: Moe's Bike Shop, Coo
Bike Setup: Specialized Seq. Pro. Dura-Ace shifters, deraillers, BB, chain & cassette.

Bottom Line: I am sadly dissappointed.The left arm interface insert seperated from the carbon arm allowing it to rotate while the insert stayed attached to the bb spindle.While I was climbing a hill!!!! The resulting fall was not good.This also happened on a pair of team superlight cranks also.
FSA did provide warranty for me,replacing them with a new set of SLK_light cranks with a new set of bb bearings.I was incredibly impressed with the service I got from FSA,but not these cranks.I am not too heavy-170lbs,but was able to break two of these crank arms.

Strengths: Solid and Durable... If you can still find them I recommend these over any of the new cranks offered.Weaknesses: NONE WHATSOEVER!Bottom Line: First, let me start by saying that my price included a titanium bottom bracket. Sam from GreenFish stated that if I broke the TI ISIS bottom bracket, it would be after I broke both of the crank arms! That sold me on the TI bracket, and after 25,000 miles, it is STILL GOING STRONG! So are these cranks!
I transferred these to my TT bike after buying the SLK Mega Exo for my main distance racing bike, and I am not sure that I made the right decision since I broke the crank arm of the SLK's after I turned the bearings to powder! So, These are durable, and able to withstand the pounding from me! How awesome is THAT?

Strengths: Stiff, Stiff and Stiff.Weaknesses: Crank arm fixing bolts needed to be retorqued after a few hundred mile. Over a weeks time, the drive side bolt backed out enough to unseated the crankarm slightly and cause a bad chainline and rubbing in all gears. Easy fix and all is normal againBottom Line: Excellent crank. I upgraded my whole bike from 8sp Dura Ace to 9sp Dura Ace execpt for the cranks. I noticed the difference in stiffness from the old 7400 as soon as i got to the very first climb. I got the crank on closeout sale from Performance and bought a Truativ GigaPipe ISIS BB also. I read other reviews saying its no stiffer than new D/A, but i dont like the looks of the new 7800 crank. However its way stiffer than the the old 7400 D/A crank it replaced. The FSA carbon cranks looks sweet on my red to black fade IF.
I recently took a spill on the IF that will require a tear down and repaint. I plan to install a K-Force Mega Exo crank and BB when i get it back, but I will put this crank on my back up ride, an old Trek 2100.
