VRP Modular Crank longevity
I'm considering the VRP Modular Crank to pair with a new fixed pulley after my factory crank pulley grenaded recently.

People who have these for a while - what's the performance, longevity & servicing like ?

e.g. Do the Allen bolts ever come loose, holes elongate or belt slip off/break more than OEM ?

It's actually an Inovators West balancer.

Are they list on their site? Where are you finding them on there. I looked but didn’t see them.

They are made for VRP I believe so you will not see them but all the information on their balancer's apply's to that unit.
