SRAM Red BB30 Crankset Experiences?
Complaints? Wish you bought Force? Air it here so I can benefit from your mistakes/knowledge and pick the right crankset.
I read that the outer ring on Red cranksets was flexy (a la RBReview) but the posts were dated by a significant amount of road-groupset time. I am in the market for a new crankset and want to get a feel of how pleased (pissed off) people are with theirs.

the initial version of Red (way before the BB30) had flex problems, but that's been remedied. overall they're well esteemed.

I love mine. I don't really notice any flex and I'm about 200 lbs. I was initially concerned because I'd read about problems but the LBS told me it was a good choice and I haven't looked back.
