OK - budgeting for a project bike - what's the lightest MTB 1x Cranks I can get for the money?
assuming new purchase and not something cobbled together :)

No carbon - that's out of my budget

What is your budget?

A deal on Cannondale SI cranks and it is about as light as they get in alloy.

Otherwise Lightning carbon is best value in this material. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

As above, how much is 'The money'?

You can get carbon cranks cheaper (but heavier) than the SL's, so your comment suggests you can't afford SL's!

If your in UK/Europe for example http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SRAM-X0-BB30- ... Sw-4BXauLh

Here in Norway you sometimes can get great deals on the Race Face Next SL right now, as the new G4 version just became easily available. Like 300 USD including 25% taxes. You might check out if anyone in your country or any international online stores offer great deals. Or is your budget lower?

The Hollowgram SiSL2 are often much more expensive than a majority of the carbon cranks available today.
