FRM crankset

I couldn't find any reviews or any info searching the forum on this equipment. It's light. It's not cheap. Is it strong? How well do the chainrings hold up? Would I do as well with a Raceface Next LP and some durable, light chainwheels?
Thanks!

crankset

FRM crankset is light as well as their ISIS BB.
chainring are made by STRONGLIGHT IN 2004.
I have built several bike, road and MTB, with FRM parts and crankset.
to me their only weakness is the BB, especially on the bearing side.
and also the lack of compatibility between ISIS on the road model (for ex. a FSA ISIS crank won't match a FRM ISIS BB unless you add a little washer inbetween).
besides chainring are to be replaced now and than, so you may put something else if unhappy there.
