I have 3 bikes

-Singular Peregrine (gravel drop bars)
-Singular Osprey (road bike)
-Genesis CDF (drop bar commuter/tourer)

I am 6ft4 ish with a 33" inside leg. All the bikes currently have 175mm cranks. Never had a fit, just the way it is. New group coming on the singular peregrine. Do I want 175 again or do I want to go shorter (170 / 172.5). I was all set on 170 as I found a clearance groupset but they've sent me 172.5 by accident

Edit - not sure if relevant but it has an Ebb

Cheers

I switch between bikes with 172.5 and 165 cranks and don't notice any difference. You might, but I don't think there's any major impact on riding with longer or shorter cranks. Ultimately it comes down to your preference.
