As a height challenged individual (5'4") with long legs (30.5") inseam I am intrigued by the shorter cranks. I have always run 170mm cranks on every bike (road, cross, gravel, trail) with the exception of my DH bike at 165mm. I would be inclined to try 155mm, but this would be a very expensive experiment. I am hoping many reviews and testing will pop up over the next year to give me more information and data points to go from.
