Name and shame broken crank, and mention price range, or I will recommend the new Royce bling.

Sugino Comp the stock chainset on the tricross single - its done about 7000miles.

Say max £150 - do royce do cranks? That would go nicely with my new wheels :)

Isn't that a strange place to see a crank snap? I've seen pic of failures/cracks/splits at either end but clean across the middle is a new one.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
