Default BNIB crank on Ebay

Gotta be quite rare to find one of these brand new in the box.

No, theres no strength difference between the two, just a very minor difference in the nose O.D. (4x4 is slightly larger to give an inteference fit for the crankshaft damper)

These guys were at Autosport and make a few.

Prices in Euros, so even better if exchange rate keeps moving south for them

I dont think its a bad price, the old adage "try finding another" people happily pay more for copies, funny to think based on the box it could have ended up in a period touring or rally cosworth.

I'd imagine for most builds, even a lowly n/a Pinto crank would be more than strong enough for most people. SO hard to judge strength really....how many people break cranks ?

I'd never heard of them before until I seen them at Autosport, but they have a good range of gear they make.
