My only annoyance is the Shimano specific bolt pattern. Why???

I switched to 1x11 and had chainline issues. These got me right at 49-50mm. Chain stays put while backpedaling now! They look great, pretty light for the price and no creaks whatsoever.

I bought this because I needed to replace my crank. I bought a SLX crank and wanted a easy install. I am not a bike mechanic but the whole thing snapped together in Minutes. I actually mounted the chain ring and installed the new crank in the parking lot of the trail system. Happy with my purchase.

Note to self. Next time order a new BB so I can replace all at once.

Awesome crankset! Every bit as nice as XT but more affordable. Looks great and functions flawlessly.

Looks nice and does not flex. Nice upgrade from previous crank.

So far the upgrade from my Deore setup is working great! I was surprised how light the crank is.

It weighs almost the exact same as the XT version which surprised me considering extra cost of XT. So what justifies the cost of the XT crank? Just a glossy finish? I actually like the look of the SLX better.

Awesome. Lightweight and strong. Just as good as XT in my opinion, just slightly heavier. I pretty much always recommended SLX over XT unless you're a total weight weenie

Very light and strong for the price and they look good

Looks good, feels good! I wish they were compatible with RF chainrings .

Great value, same performance as an xt crank, love the logos and overall look, pair it with the Slx ring youll have a killer drivetrain,

Perfect fit and "just right" for my needs. This is probably one of best value buys out there.

Paired with the BB-MT800 bottom bracket and M7000 SM-CRM70 1X chain ring, this crank looks great and performs great.

Great upgrade from stock 3x8. Super fast shipping, easy install on my bike. Love the shimano crank.

Replaced a 2013 SLX 10sp Crankset with this unit and things feel stiffer and look better.

Bought to build out a bike for my young MTB racer! Good quality. Fast delivery.

I did a quick 2x10 to 1x11 upgrade on a bike using SLX and am very impressed. Set up quickly and smoothly. Good fit and finish is a worthy alternative to XT.

Upgraded my wife's MTB to a 1x drivetrain with this crank set and couldn't be happier with the purchase. Great price from Jenson also.

This is such a beautiful looking crankarms!!! They really dress up my Merida big seven 800 super lite frame.

I can't think of anything bad about these except maybe that the chainring/spider interface is proprietary. The look better in person than in pictures, they install easily, and they work perfectly. I put them on my son's bike first and liked them so well that I switched my own bike to them too.

Stiff and light. I don't see any difference between this and my XT cranks. Actually prefer the esthetics of the SLX more.

No need to pay more for a great piece of equipment. Good looking, solid feel. Just what I needed.

For the price I prefer Shimano SLX compare to the other brands on the market, it comes with the bolts of the chainring and the plastic one that hold both arms

I replaced my drivetrain about a month ago and went from 3x9 to 1x11 and cannot be happier. This review will be identical for all the parts I used to do the conversion on my 2014 Diamondback Sortie 1 29er. I chose all the parts as a good compromise for what I believe to be high quality, long lasting, lightweight and low cost parts. So far I have not experienced any problems with my setup and would recommend each part individually and as a whole setup. I have tried many times to get the chain to jump when back pedaling on the granny gear, but cannot. Including tax, I was just under $400 total for everything. I would highly recommend each part I used in my swap. Below is a list of the parts I used in my swap.

- Shimano XT BB-MT8000 Bottom Bracket
- Shimano SLX FC-M7000 Cranks
- OneUp 32 Tooth SLX/XT Chainring
- Shimano XT SL-M8000 Shifter
- Shimano XT RD-M8000 11sp Derailleur
-Sunrace CXM8 11-46 Cassette
- KMC X11.93 Chain

I recommend Jenson USA for all kinds of products. My LBS installs nearly everything I buy so it’s a match made in heave so to speak. This SLX is amazingly stiff and can’t beat the price / quality trade off.

SLX cranks works great at a good deal for a 1x11 boost setup. Very happy

Great deal for a durable and lightweight crankset. Easy install. Nice fit and finish. Love Shimano components.

Don't bother with XT- these are the same alloy, same weight, and they are drop dead gorgeous in person. They absolutely blow the glossy black XTs out of the water. They carry the same shimano ease of installation and stiffness that you expect, and they look just smashing.

Pretty light weight. Looks really good too.

I was looking for an inexpensive crank and this did the job. The things I don't like about the crank are that you need a special chainring and the crank doesn't come with a bottom bracket. However, at around $100 I am not complaining too much. Installation was a breeze and I don't have to worry about complying with some 28.99 standard.
