Really nice crankset, used it to replace the 52/42/30 that came with my 2006 trek 520 touring bicycle. Much better gearing, this crankset is now standard on the trek 520. The outboard bearing are a big improvement over the octalink cartridge bearings, much stiffer and smoother. Shimano instructions where not exactly correct. When matching the chainline to the mountain (touring) rear 135 mm spacing, the two 5 mm spacers needed to go on the left (non drive) side, not the right, Trek had displaced the bottom bracket shell to right to match the original road crankset to the mountain rear spacing. I replaced shimano's plastic spacers with metal spacers also. I also replaced the original 105 front derailleur with the deore derailleur for better front shifting.
