Hi Andrew
Thanks for the review.
I’ve just recieved some Aeffect R cranks in 170mm. Unfortunately the part about all Aeffect R cranks being cut down to each individual crank length is not true! These 170mm cranks are exactly the same length as my current Aeffect 175mm cranks, and you can see that the hole has just been drilled 5mm further in, with 5mm more material at the end of the crankarm.
Looking at the Pinkbike press release article for these cranks, I can see in the comments that others have had the same issue as myself. Someone from RaceFace has posted on there assuring everyone that all these cranks are individually sized, which is quite frustrating as it is clearly not the case.
I will be returning mine and hopefully will be able to find a set that are cut to length, if they do actually exist!
