Ok, here's my question.
What's the deal with BMX cranks on freestyle bikes? what's the benefit? are the stronger or is it that you can get smaller chainrings. Or is it just fashion?
I've just picked up a volume cutter, but it has 170mm cranks on it. Looking for something with shorter arms, what's my best (cheapish) option?
