Hello all!
So like many others I have had the unfortunate experience of the thread on my right crank arm stripped after only a month of usage (gutting I know!). However, I am not silly enough to try and take the easy and definitely unsafe option of using a helicoil kit (as surely that would just make the hole larger than it already is and therefore the pedal even more so unstable?).
Therefore I am in the market for a new replacement crankset that I can take to my LBS to get replaced.
I currently have the Felt F95 bike, size = 58cm.

I currently have the FSA Tempo 50/34T crankset installed, 175mm. However, when actually looking for a decent (but cheap) AND compatible crankset I am really struggling.
If someone could point me in the right direction that would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
