Fast processing and shipping from Power Meter City. It’s been difficult to find shorter crank arms lately since everyone is trying to switch now, but no issues here.

Wanted to move to a shorter crank for less stress on the hips and knees can already feel the difference. Ultegra has always been a great product for the price. And timely/professional order fulfillment from Power Meter City. Will not hesitate to order from them again!
