The original design of this crankset is well known to suffer from breakage/cracks under load which are not atypical of MTB or Gravel riding.The quality, finishing, machining and tolerances look pretty good on this. The crank rotates freely once installed even though I did not use the provided DUB BB. Instead I used existing old BB already installed on my bike. The included BB does look of similarly good quality as rest of the crank.Now the actual usability and durability part. The installation and mounting on the bike is fairly straight forward and poses no issues if you have earlier used 3 bolt SRAM crankset/chainrings. The package comes with 3 bolts to attach chainring to the crankset and I had no issues with threading on screws or crankset either.After inserting into BB the crank rotates freely and smoothly. On my solo ride on light gravel, the crank did not creak or drop chain. The interface where the chainring attaches is perfectly flat and as long as you tighten the chainring to spec (and provided chainring is flat) the chain does not fall off. I used it with 11 speed older Shimano XT 8000 groupset otherwise and the chainline had no issues with 3mm offset chainring.The durability is where this crankset makes me worried. The design is certainly very attractive as the original but also unnecessarily complicated and probably not very well suited for heavy loads as evident from many reports of these cranks breaking. The original design puts more weight on looks than functionality.I intend to keep riding it on my gravel bike and I will update my findings on durability as the time passes but till then I think I would be skeptical to drop the money they are asking for this. Also note, the crankset does not include the chainring so you have to procure it yourself on top adding to expenses. This is not a weight weeny item either and hopefully that is a good news. The extra heft might help in durability.

Solid product so far, 8 hard rides in So Cal on Enduro Trails. I’d like to see different sizes made (155, 160,165mm) & different colors combos. They ride smooth & seem durable. Price point is fantastic!

This is a really nice upgrade crank set in my opinion! It took me some time to install this on my bike, but the effort was definitely worth it for sure! The pieces are high quality and well made throughout to be super strong while being lightweight as well. Only time will tell if there will be any issues in the future, but my first impressions and sessions of use have been very positive overall as a huge improvement and upgrade from the factory crank. Therefore, this product receives the top five star rating from me all the way!
