hey fella

I ride downhill Have had Ancillottis for years so always have to find odd bits.

If you have strange bottom bracket size try Truvative loads cheaper than shimano and just as strong. Let me know what bike you have and ill try and help, i have friends who work in the industry. Ps Anytime your in Gloucestershire give me a yell i know some basass dh

[ancillotti rob]

Sorry just re read your post will look into the giants.

[ancillotti rob]

Truvavtiv do a 83mm bb. Try the gigapipe not cheap but cheaper than shimano. I think the Giant you have would have been fitted with truvativ from new, but prbably the cheaper crank set.

[nuggsy]

it was fitted with an isis of some kind like, ive got my eye on race face prodigy cranks on ebay and cn get a race face bb from scotby cycles. the other option is to get shimano saint crankset but they certainly aint cheap

Who,s the latest British downhill hope ? The last time I payed any attention to the discipline it was Steve Peat.

[ancillotti rob]

Hey Mick Steve is still at the top ish, but not the uk. Gee atherton ( English) is world champ.Danny hart is the new hope for the uk.

From my experiance i would stay clear of Race face cranks. Just my findings, but i spent £150 plus and they lasted all of 2 weeks. Truvativ is good on a budget or saints or xt if you are feeling flush. I have used xt and rate them.

[nuggsy]

saint seems to be the boys like, its really hard trying to find stuff like but i am watching some saints on ebay just now cheap cheap and there in dumfries.

im sooooooooooooo annoyed i cant get to ride the damn thing tho
