Hi there,
I'm the process of building up a GT STS DS, buying parts mainly though ebay.
Recently bought a FSA Gamma crankset (modern I know..) and the drive side crank arm is 170mm and the non-drive crank arm 175mm. The lengths are stated on the crank arms and I've double checked with a tape measure and the centre to centre measurements are definitely different.
I've messaged the seller but assume all is above board as they were removed from a new bike.
Any opinions as to whether I'm likely to notice the difference in length when riding? They were a bargain and I'd rather avoid the hassle of returns etc if its likely to be ok. They're just for allround use, bit of casual road riding and trail riding.
Unfortunately I only have half the parts I need so can't install and test ride.
Cheers
Ashes
