Appreciate the review. I'm about to drop to 155 on my road bike soon. The "I feel like my bike became smaller" is interesting since that is the feel I'm going for. When you said you feel less power on hills, is that from spinning or standing up and pedaling?
I also ride a road bike and recently switched from a 170mm to a 165mm crank. The change feels much more comfortable, especially on rides over 100km. On my MTB, however, the shorter crank feels less powerful on uphill climbs since I need to spin more. With the 170mm crank, I could overtake my friends on climbs, but with the 155mm, I find it more comfortable, especially when standing up on technical uphill sections.
Nice ride master, thanks for the info regarding cranks!
Thanks bro! 🤜🏼🤛🏼

Did you drop from 170 to 155 or 165 to 155?
