>I'm selling a 165mm 34/50 Compact Ultegra Crankset in great condition. I've ridden these less than a dozen times, most of which were commutes with a few shorter rides. The teeth show no wear and aside from a few scratches and some dirt, they're practically new. Problem is, they just don't fit me properly. Asking for $180, but am open to offers.
