					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve never heard or &lt;strong&gt;VALOR &lt;/strong&gt;bicycles but this air-craft aluminum complete &lt;em&gt;looks custom made&lt;/em&gt;.  I love this one because of the polished &lt;strong&gt;SINZ&lt;/strong&gt; 19mm cranks. These race specific cranks came in 170mm which is perfect for my size and are featured on both my Bulldog BlackStars 20&quot; and 24&quot;. I&#039;m 5&#039;3&quot; so my SINZ 170mm on my 20&quot; &lt;strong&gt;Bulldog&lt;/strong&gt; BlackStar are gold colored, My SINZ 170mm cranks on my 24&quot; &lt;strong&gt;Bulldog &lt;/strong&gt;BlackStar are white and I still love them both and both can be veiwed on this awesome website. This cruiser looks like it was built for a smaller rider such as myself.  &lt;u&gt;The rear tire guard is a nice touc&lt;/u&gt;h.  I was thinking of getting one so I can avoid my rear hitting my 24&quot; wheel when competing. White &lt;strong&gt;Answer&lt;/strong&gt; rims are a unique choice and I&#039;ll bet this one jumps good too at high speed.]]></description>

I just have to replace the cranks on my Freddy Krueger bike. It&#039;s BB is a little too wide and they were pinching/binding the bearings when I tightened it down. I looked at all the shops at the national race I was at but none had the avians. I ended up going with the Crupi Pro cranks. They are still pretty good. (They didn&#039;t have any dxrs either)]]></description>
