or
Sugino SG75 “criterium” +SG75 bottom bracket, £205.

Theres is not much info available about the SG75 criteriums. I’m not sure if they are the same crank as the normal SG75 but just bundled with a chainring for the crit racer crowd or built differently. They have a different paint job at least.
Im a big guy, definitely a “Clydesdale” as Carlton likes to put it. I push fairly big watts so want a reliably stiff crank set.
What do you guys think? Are the Sugino’s as good as the dura ace? Any benefits to sticking to square taper for example?
Edit - Adding another layer of complexity, alternatively there is the Sugino Direct Drive DD75 crank for similar money to the dura ace at £320.
thanks
i currently own Sugino 75 DD(Direct drive).
i will personally recommend Dura ace 7710.
i think most of member in this forum will recommend Duraace 7710 over other cranks
