Any idea where I can get 155mm crank?

Hi everyone!
I've just started to ride a road bike. A guy in a bike shop told me that I need to change my crank to 155mm. He suggested me to get T.A. crank, but I can't find it online. Could anyone recommend me a good brand other than T.A.?

Thanks!

My BF got a short version of the origin-8 from Amazon. He's happy with them.

If you are looking for not just the cranks but a triple, Peregrine Bicycle Works has a set up. In addition, Power on Cycling sells short cranks.

Love mine. Been riding with 155s for 4 years!

I also wanted to add, though, that 155 are pretty short, you may want a second opinion and/or a bike fit. I have 160s on all but one bike and 155 on my velo - I can sure tell how short they are.
Also, Itself and I ride recumbents, they are much more popular on bents where you can't stand up and spinning is your power.
Also, also - you need more info than crank arm length, double? triple? what kind of BB?

Thanks TsPoet, itself, Sylvia and roguedog!

I think I am going to order Specialities TA Vega Double Crankset, which I found on Bilenky site http://www.bilenky.com/store/scripts...p?idproduct=69.

I am pretty sure that I need 155mm (and I want to have a double), because I measured myself with the bike fitting machine at a shop...

Thank you all again & happy riding :cool:
