Review on Altus 170mm Square Crankset with Guard - 28x38x48t, Compatible with 7/8-Speed by Kevin Nelson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The M310 derailleur in particular was very easy to align with this crankset

I completely rebuilt a 90's Miyata frame that had no indexed shifting, a glued bottom bracket and worn sprockets and now it is it's a city bike with new Altus parts. The M310 derailleur in particular was very easy to align with this crank while my old one was impossible to adjust. Here's my list: Altus 28x38x48t 7/8spd 170mm shrouded square Shimano BB-UN26 BB cartridge, JIS - 68x123mm Shimano FD-M310 Aultus front derailleur (28.6-34.9mm, 3x7/8 speed, low clamp) Shimano Acera SL -M310 Rapid Fire shifter left (black, 3-speed) Shimano 7-speed Rapidfire Plus mountain bike rear derailleur - SL-M310 - block right - ESLM310R7AT Shimano RD-M310 Altus 7/8-speed rear derailleur silver. Over a hundred I now have a bike that handles like a new hybrid, shifting is great.

Pros
  • Good product for its price
Cons
  • weak
