why did you go from fsa carbon crankset to rotor alu crankset

zippy2012 says:

The important thing about it was going from 165 to 172.5 which is better for me. As for the Rotor brand, I already had FSA, a lot of Sugino and the Rotor has a disk instead of a spider.

Good God! I didn't think this bike could get any sexier. What made you switch from the Cormia trispoke to a 4 spoke FFWD?

zippy2012 says:

LOL. Those were the Chinese knock-offs I wrote about in the forums! I must admit they were pretty convincing with the decals.
