I'm 6'5" tall and have always run 175's and read often about Zinn recommending 180 190 etc. Anyway when I built my Ram I wanted the Rene Herse Cranks at 170 for looks of course.. Anyway I can't tell the difference. I would imagine with my bad knee the shorter is probably easier on my knees as they don't have to bend as much.. just my thought but blah blah..
I put 165's on once and didn't notice till I sold the bike and saw it written in the crank. I'm lucky I'm not that sensitive to bike setup.. yet I have a friends who swears she can tell the reach difference with she puts riding gloves on.
