What crank length do you ride? I know the most popular is 175mm, but 'back in the day' they used to regularly do the 177mm or even 180mm. The difference between 175mm and 177mm is 2mm only, with a claimed 3% power output increase.

 

The advantage of a longer crank is more leverage, but you do sacrifice acceleration!
