Been viewing the short crank discussion and my continued pedal strikes on my 2023 Whyte E-160 RS-MX mullet , so thought I'd give these ago
XLC CR-E01 152MM Length
£19.00 From Amazon DE , come with crank bolts too , price gone up to £24.00 now
Quality looks ok.
Maybe if I get on with these , i may invest in either Hope's or Pinned , but I though first, I would give these a go and see how I get on,
I have not changed any settings , seat post . seat , other than minor roll on bars a bit , will see how I get on.
Clearance on the non drive side is a bit tight to the motor cover , but it does clear , maybe I could shim out a bit ? , Obviously the Whyte method of mounting and cover comes into play I guess.

Cheers,

bit of feed back
for £ , they are fine , 152mm is good , I have noticeable less pedal strikes and after brain , leg re-cal all good , notice no major effects , other than the positive less pedal strikes and clearance , i think i'll hold off on the pinnd, hope's and put the money to a Sram bleed kit ,maybe Jagwire elite , or even ditch the Sram Codes, not a fan and sticky pistons again and go back to Shimano on my Whyte E160 RS MX , and to my old tried and tested gravity bleed.

£19/24 for a crankset that works is a bargain. If they clear the motor cover then you're good, why mess with them? You can spend £big to get Pinnd or Hope logo on cranks but will they work any different? Nope.
 
Also keen to know if compatible with gen5 cx. Cube Hybrid One77 specifically.
