I have a Primato chainset on my fixed bike, and I’m now a bit concerned about it. Has anyone thought about the effect of rider weight? I would have thought that the heavier a rider is, the more likely a failure of this kind. I guess I am trying to avoid fat-shaming accusations and ask politely how heavy are people who have had this crank failure?!
I am quite light (less than 60kg - scrawny weakling comments expected) so I am hoping I will get away with continuing to use these cranks, but I am certainly going to keep a close eye on them. Interested to hear what everyone thinks...
