Only advice I can give is go for whichever doesn't have tapered cranks even if it means buying a new bottom bracket to match.
Tapered cranks, I hate 'em! I've got hollowtech II on all my bikes, no fuss at all.

Number three Chris, Truvative. Final answer.

Not only can you not get splined cranks at this price level, there's absolutely nothing wrong with a properly installed square taper.

I've got square taper on all my bikes (apart from the 120 year old ladies bike which has its original cotter pins), no fuss at all.

@ dodgy ~ Ouch :ohmy: I just had a new BB installed and it was a standard Taper fitting (the mechanic never gave me the option for splined, and i didnt think to ask)

@ mickle ~ thanks for advice (the Truvativ does look the business) :smile:

Yes, square taper is fine, but I was merely expressing my preference for the 'newer' style. Much more elegant, but it's only my opinion :smile:
