Anyone got any experience with some of these?

I'm mostly tempted by the serious reduction in price.
(Its to replace the slightly bent crank i'm currently rocking [Thanks to Rosstrevor's xc loop in the summer] unless anyone has any good ideas on how to grip a crank and apply the perfect force to bend it back accurately?)
Cranksets Suggestions?

Re: Cranksets Suggestions?
I know that RaceFace cranks of a certain vintage had a reputation of being made of cheese. Whether this is the case with these cranks or not, I have no idea.
Make sure that your current BB is ISIS.
If it was me though, I'd be upping the spend to about €100 and getting an SLX set and then ignoring it for the next 2 years when you may have to change your BB for about €16.

I have to return some videotapes...

Re: Cranksets Suggestions?
The slx were the other contender for me, I just noticed these at the very high reduction
And as much as I enjoy cheese, I appreciate it not being ideal material to manufacture cranks from
