What size cranks!?

[dhlouie101]

Hey guys,
Im going to be buying some new cranks soon, because my FSA gravitys, are slightly bent. I have no idea what size they are though.. I am wondering what size cranks to get? I am 175cm.
At this stage Im thinking of getting a pair of shimano saint M815 cranks, they come in 165, 170, 175mm. WHAT ONES? :O

for a DH bike go 165mm's for extra ground clearance and closer stance.

Ah okay thanks for that, ill listen out to other opinions as well, but im thinking ill go that

Yeah, 165mm are the way to go, I use 170mm on my DH bike but I'm 190cm mostly in the legs and 165mm never felt right. I have to be extra cautious not to clip pedals.
