1664 ftw

fly's are good. will debate getting them as some kid (dunno who he was) snapped his ilegals clean yesterday at Harpenden skatepark. But you seriously can't go wrong with profiles.

I myself will go get a pair of single profile race crank arms to replace the ilegals so I can keep the ti spindle.

I dunno, get what you want.

edit - i got the ilegal's cheap when I went to portugal, like 30quid, so I might just sell them now for about that and go for the profile arms.
yer get some profiles, or macneils, or demolitions Big Grin
something like that so you can still have the ti Wink

i f*cking hate that company !

Ok, so profiles copied redline cranks so did all other cromo tubing crank makers, all other tubular cromo fork making companies copied redline, so you must hate all companies that copied redlines products?

Stop complaining about people copying who because everybody copies one another but it comes down to quality in the end...and quality is what you can "piss and moan" about.

Soooooo many people say a certain part of a company or whole company is crap because they see a snapped product or they snap it...it could be like macneil conjoined which was a stuff up in macneils engineering behalf or it could just be wear'n'tear or hard riding....but saying dont buy a part really gets on people nerves just because of some fault.

Just putting it out there

P.S illegals are good nothing bad ive heard of them so far

I've heard soooo many bad things about them. I really don't think you have anything to put to the table. If someone snaps something through "wear'n'tear" it's the companies fault, it shouldn't happen, the crank should endure the wear.

And profile really didn't copy redline at all.

I don't think its been mentioned yet, but KHE have brought out a replacement for the Reverse, its called the Astern and has externally adjustable slack, so you don't need to take the hub apart to alter the slack.
