Is there a rule of thumb for crank length that takes into account the
type of riding you do?
Most mountain bikes have longer cranks since riders tend to do more
climbing than spinning.
My pants inseam is 30" and my knees have been doing fine for the last
30,000 miles with 170 mm cranks. Recently I have run across some
deals on crank/chainring combos with varying crank length.
Are my knees going to instantly explode if I try riding 175 mm cranks?
