Leash of Shame - anyone running 155mm cranks for EP8?

[DCErik]

So I'm 5'9" and a bit, with a 31" inseam, and the OEM 150mm dropper on my 2022 Rise (L) is just a bit too high when fully inserted. So I made a little 'leash' to limit its travel by 10mm or so. Just ordered a set of 155mm Miranda cranks for the EP8 to replace my 170mm e*thirteens which I think will fix that while providing other benefits, too (fewer pedal strikes, smoother tech climbing). Anyone else running these? The 160mm Shimano cranks have apparently been discontinued, or I'd have tried those, first.

Shimano discontinued their 160mm? Shucks. I've been searching for a pair. I'm reluctant to go with e*thirteens, and don't like the price of 5Dev.

I had the LBS check, and their rep said that something new from Shimano will replace the 160mm cranks.

I just bought a set of Miranda 155’s. I really like them went from pedal strikes to virtually none.

Mine are en route from Portugal after a one-week delay between ordering and shipping.
