To me, the conversation began and ended with "they weigh less." Eagle cranks were already more reliable than Next SL. Now they're lighter too. In fact, the whole SRAM/Truvativ DUB lineup is a rout at every price point above $100, and it'll only become more attractive in the aftermarket as the various models start appearing at OEM cost. It doesn't hurt that SRAM's Eagle chainring is the best available at any price and usually comes with the cranks.
