Review on JGbike 170Mm Mountain Bike Crankset With Square Taper 68-73 BB, 104 BCD Chainring & Bolts For MTB BMX Road Bicycle - Compatible With Shimano, SRAM, FSA, And Gaint by Matt Woodward

Not a long-lasting option

The BB creaks no matter what you do, the cover nut constantly comes loose. I got about five rides in before the cover but came out (I had to tighten it every ride) and the crank fell off. Fortunately I was actually seated and at the end of my ride when it happened. This is a poor quality item that could get someone hurt. I just bit the bullet and got a Shimano BB and crankset. Should have done that from the start.

Pros
  • Works well, looks good. Much easier to work on than stock square taper crankset that it replaced.
Cons
  • May not be as aesthetically pleasing as other cranksets
