CranKshaft comparisons
Does anyone have any experience/knowledge of the following:
SRAM 100 vs 300 vs Sugino messanger vs. Eighthinch?
If so, how do they compare?

Eighthinch is def entry level. I'm betting the S100 is better, because it's actually produced by a bicycle company. Eighthinch is just the housebrand for wheel and sprocket, they don't actually make anything. The Eighthinch cranks are just choice generic cast cranks with a screen logo.

Although I am unsure of the new 144 bcd models from Eighthinch. Although at that pricepoint and from looking at the pictures, they're just badged generics, just like the 130 models.
They're not bad, I've got 6,000+ miles on mine. They're just not that great compared to the other options.
