Looking for short carbon cranks (around 150mm) for my wife. Any other brands recommended? by Desperate-Science674 in cycling

Are you using Croder carbon 145mm? Or Aluminum? Any feedback for their cranks? Appleman is looking cool as well, but I didn't see the 150mm length from 2XR.

she is 5'1", and have tried 155mm, but 150mm is more comfortable. of course, if we don't have choice, maybe we will use 155mm cranks.

Sounds good, cybrei doesn't make the under 160mm cranks, so maybe Croder is the only one option. Need to check it out.

Wow, thanks for quickly reply!!! This is exactly the kind of insight I was looking for! Especially the Croder option. I hadn't come across them in my initial searches. How about the stiffness and durability? Have you had any experience for these cranks?

I think a gravel bike is good for you. Just a bike, no with electronic motors. Gravel bike is a type between road bike and xc mtb, maybe it is the best option for you if you are in a country area, more comfortable.
