I know it's new, but if you are an early adopter let us know what you think: )

Sounds like it's going to fit almost everything and be the cost/gram winner. Couldn't find any thing about the qfactor but I would guess that it's going to be wide

Look nice, but they're for MTB.

It is a double crankset. And there are a variety of chainring options. 40-28 may be the most road bike worthy. With an 11-23 cassette you would have a wide range of gears. It mentions 64/104mm chainrings. 104mm rings are available from several makers in a wide variety of sizes. Upper 40s size.

I'm actually using the Next SL on my MTB..
Such a nice crankset !

No noticeable flex on drops/jumps or climbing and no chain dropping issues - sweet chainrings !
The cool perk to this crankset = cinch BB where it's almost applicable to any BB.
