Ooohhh look at all those places for mud to get stuck! 😁

I needed shorter cranks, 170 to 160. To replace my carbon cranks to 160 it was just as much as 5Dev. I went with 5Dev raw aluminum. For sure, they are unmistakable.

Whats the torsional stiffness vs a carbon crank, the Modulus of titanium is pretty flexy, you have presumably got to widen the center to compensate for material loss
Be interesting to compare to a welded ti crank?

Wait until you see which geometries they can do with 3D printers

They look pretty, but also looks like I'd break them on my first few rides...

I've seen too many of their cranks snap. They look nice but given the "strenght" and price, these are only good for rich posers. I suppose that's what 5dev is aiming for.

Cool, something no regular rider ever wanted or asked for.
Makes you wonder what useless and expensive thing theses companies are going to shove down our collective throats?
Update: 5DEV files for bankruptcy.
