What would be the best crank to have in a 4age producing ~200hp?
Small Crank
Weight: 11kg
Big end diameter: 40mm
Big Crank
Weight: 11.7kg
Big end diameter: 42mm
Do the extra 700g and larger big ends make the big crank a significantly stronger crank?
If so, is the added strength a worthwile exchange for the increased recip. mass and bearing friction?
What treatments should one do to a crank that is going to work at such high revs? (est. 8800rpm)
