• Ever find yourself wondering what is a better crankset than the legendary Sugino 75?

    well, here it is:

    the Grand Mighty Crankset

    Super hard forged crank set from Sugino, stiffer than the regular Sugino 75 NJS version. These cranks are champagne silvery-bronze color, with a dusty finish all over and just the top side of each crank arm polished.

    Like the Sugino 75, these are pro racing cranks, used by many pro riders in Japan, and accept a 144bcd size chainring.

    Compared to the 3 forging passes on the 75, the Grand Mighty has 26, which makes the cranks much more resistant to impact damage. This also makes the finish much nicer and is much more resistant to corrosion, oxidation blooms, and the like. The milling of the square taper on the Grand Mighty is more precise (both done to size more accurately and also more precisely in the center of the crank) than on the 75. This plus the superior forging means you can take it on and off a lot more than a 75 before it doesn't quite go on as straight, and it is more likely to give you a truly centered chainring.

    The crank arms, when you can get them in the UK retails for £250 alone. crank arms are 165mm

    The crankset also includes a TA Specialities chainring 48t, which retails for £50

    Both are in great condition, with some minor marks from use, threads, tapers and teeth in excellent condition

    collection preferred (e3) but can post if need be (including internationally)

    £160
