- One thing that should be noted is that, as far as I have been able
- to find out, the '93 LX cranks will only be available in 175mm. This is a
- disappointing setback for those of us who are used to spinning 180mm
- cranks. I'm 6'4'' tall, and I find 175mm cranks to be a little on the
- smallish side.
- I've been inquiring at dealers for about a month now, and nobody
- can get 180mm '93 LX cranks. Apparently, Shimano isn't making them. Guess
- I will get those Graftons after all.
