Got this reply from Mark Stonich, about shortening the TruVativ 175s....
<<<I should be able to shorten such cranks in
the near future.
The problem isn't the external BB but the fact that the spindle is
permanently attached to the right arm. This is a problem with my
current fixture and standard tap holders. I know what needs to be
made to allow shortening your 175 cranks. First I need to
determine several critical dimensions on this new type of
cranks. Then I need to find time to make the new tooling.
Finding time is a big problem.... And I am
busier than ever shortening the cranks that can be done with my
current tooling.
