Are there any 175 mm Cranks with the Levo offset available?

Why would you want a longer crank? You are going to get more pedal strikes.

Don't do it.
Bikes descend better with shorter cranks and the levo already has problems with pedal strikes.

I have often wondered how crank length affects your balance when descending. Not that a 10-15mm would seem to make that much of a difference, considering I could put my foot on my flat pedals off by that much and probably not notice it. My thought was a wider foot print/stance would offer more stability (slightly). Why do you think shorter ones are better?
