I looked into one but you need a wide wide crank spindle to clear the chainstays. Otherwise, the thing looks sweet to me.

I used the stock spindle/spacers on the Shimano Hone cranks. Cleared the chainstays with no issues.

Loving it! I don't have a lot of trail time yet but should be able to give a good update next week...

Nice bike. I bet that thing rips. I need to stop visiting this thread until I cash my paycheck.

Dirtbag, are you using the 170mm Hones or the 175mm long ones? I have the 175's and am wondering if they clear the stays.

Try calling Transition. Hone 170mm arms fit.
