Also, the description says that it uses a 24mm axle, and comes with BB cups for 68/73 english cups - can anyone confirm that is can also be used with pressed in cubs for 24mm axles (assuming the appropriate spacers, of course)? Quote:

Not to mention these cranks have the greater practicality of being able to use the same crank for both compact and standard sized chainrings, which is benefit to both the manufacturers and the consumers. While many people think I'm a bike curmudgeon, this is modern trend which is clearly an improvement. |

From the IRD site:
Chainring bolts included Weight (including BB and 46-30t rings): 995g Is that a competitive weight for alloy versus what other brands offer? I'm looking around at options now, still leaning towards a Praxis since I've been very happy with the Zayante/Turn that came with my Venge. |

I think the specs. might be off in the description. The photo clearly shows mounting positions for both inner and outer chainrings on 110 mm BCD arms (110/74 double cranks typically don't mount chainrings to the outer position). In the past many cranks (including some from Dimension) originally designed as 110/74 triples have been manufactured as 110 mm doubles by not including 74 mm mounting holes. When using a 110/74 triple as a 110 double, a 108 mm BB would be appropriate. I'm pretty sure this cranks is mislabeled as a 110/74 cranks, and instead this crank is intended to be used only as a 110 mm double (which means a minimum chainring size of 34 teeth). This would be consistent with typical cyclocross usage.

I see. Well, let's hope the description is correct; I already ordered the crank arms, a 110 BCD 46-tooth big chainring and 74 BCD 30-tooth small chainring, and a 107 mm Shimano square taper BB. Would be nice if it worked

It's already been said, but I really wish more companies made 110BCD big rings for the middle position on a triple. Sugino does for the 601 subcompacts. I was actually wondering if I could countersink my own rings to make it work, along with a 74BCD 30t ring.

+1. I've ordered one too. After getting bike set up, I'll compare to the aforementioned Ritchey cranks.

TA makes a variety of rings in 110mm BCD, including 'big rings'. Just use short/track CR bolts.

I am a bit ignorant when it comes to triples; does this mean that if I were to run a 46-tooth 110 BCD chainring as the big ring and a 30-tooth 74 BCD chainring as the small ring, I would need to install a bash guard or something to take up the space of the third chainring?
