The answer to this one is simple: No, it’s probably not worth it to ”upgrade” to carbon cranks unless, of course, you’re all out of things to change on your bike and you’d like to drop some weight. Carbon cranks look the business and are usually lighter than aluminum arms, but the performance advantage is negligible.

What is the downside of Ultegra crankset?

What are the different types of axles on a crankset?
Axle: Most cranksets use an axle permanently fixed to the driveside crank and a left crank that bolts/clamps into place. Some brands still use a separate axle, while Campagnolo uses two half axles that join in the centre on its Ultra Torque designs. Most come with 24mm steel axles or 30mm alloy ones.
What is the average size of a bike crank?

What are the best cranks for Shimano chainrings/spiders?
Shimano’s ‘blended’ chainring/spider design demands specific replacements to keep aesthetic and functional form. Material: Solid forged alloy cranks are the cheapest option but generally the heaviest. Drilled or hollow moulded alloy cranks then follow in the fashion (but not necessarily function) hierarchy.
