Do you think at this point that the Next SL cranks are burly enough for the intended use of that bike? It seems that the distinctions between big bike stuff and small bike stuff are getting really narrow. At one point it was Diabolus-type stuff or nothing. Now that Atlas and SixC are considered DH/DH-race is it feasible for a 200+lb rider to rock Next SLs on his AM bike in Vancouver? Cuz I really want to.
It seems to me it depends on how that 200 (+) lb rider rides.
I'll let you know how this 164 lb rider does but that won't be much help.
