They look really nice and very distinctive and exclusive!
Question is - do they feel and ride as good and as special as they look? I know John Tomac would agree

Trying to be unbias, they look cool, they work well, they are rigid and pretty bomb proof, but for me come with quite a weight penalty.

That’s interesting! I guess these were downhill cranks and hence the strength and thus weight.
