Sugino Crankset 171mm???
Hi, was just taking apart an old steel road bike and when i removed the crankset it was stamped with 171mm's. Was just wondering whether or not that this is correct??? i have measured and it seems to be correct but i thought that cranksets come in 170mm and 172.5mm etc.

Re: Sugino Crankset 171mm???
Cranksets come in all different sizes, depending upon the manufacturer. You will usually see anywhere from 169mm to 173mm. I have an old Sugino 171mm crankset as well as a not so old 171mm Shimano crankset. The sizes available for any group of cranksets depends upon what the manufacturer decides they are going to offer.

Re: Sugino Crankset 171mm???
That is interesting, you learn something new every day. I was convinced that the 'standard' crankset lengths for relatively modern cranks were the usual that we are used to seeing in shops... not these somewhat weird sizes like a 171 or 173...
