I put a 175mm on my wife's bike because I had it around, but it's too hard on her knees.
Mine is a somewhat used, scratched 94/58 175mm model. I have a 38t Blackspire ring that I will include since it is my only 94mm crank. The ring has very little wear and should mesh fine with a good chain. All tapers and threads look great on the crank. I would rate it a 6/10 aesthetically and 9/10 mechanically. It is for a regular user, and not a show bike, though still looks pretty good.
Ideally, I exchange for the same crank in 170mm. Points for it being a 110mm BCD just to make ring compatibility easier. If it is a 94mm BCD, then I will keep the chainring and bolts.
I am open to other options, but I want it to be square taper and traditional looking. Will consider old Shimano MTB, white industries or others, as long as they work great and are reliable. It has to look pretty!
Please let me know what you have and we will go from there.
