I don’t recommend ordering used cranks, especially used cranks that take $300 chainrings. But, if the price is right, (like $189 for Campy Record CT crankset), and you’re planning on replacing the rings anyway, (like with Rotor Q Rings), go for it.
Before:
After new rings, bearings, seals, and cups:
New Rotor Q Rings, ordered from Deutschland, $190 instead of $280 domestic. The Dollar is strong right now.
Total cost:
- Used Record CT Ultra Torque Crank $189
- Rotor Q Rings 50/34 110/113 BCD $189
- New Campy ceramic CULT bearings $35
- New UT BB Cups $26
Total: $439 for a Campy Record crank with new rings and BB. I’m happy.
