125mm cranks for muni

Anybody prefer 125mm cranks instead of 150mm for muni?

Me. Among many other people nowadays. With a good brake you don’t need super long cranks anymore and it’s a lot less disadvantage (if any) uphill than people think.

For me I can’t get on with short cranks despite trying , I don’t know if it’s because of my height and long legs or having ridden mtb all my life on cranks around 170mm mark.

I don’t like the little circle feel with short cranks, my unicycles are on 138-150s.

I certainly wouldn’t call myself a good muni rider so i like the extra control with longer cranks, I’m not concerned about loss of speed with shorter cranks.
