I was going to stick this back on ebay, where I bought it, but I thought I'd stick it on here for a week first, in case anyone needed it.

Truvativ Holzfeller AL 7050 TV 170mm crank arms, in perfect mechanical condition, but some of the black worn off at the edges.

Truvativ BB-03-GPDH-118-73E Bottom Bracket. In great condition. I managed to scratch the sticker in the middle with a screw! But it's not like you can see the sticker when it's installed. I've even regreased it - Castrol LM - and put anti-seize - Loctite C5-A - on the threads. The BB requires one 2.5mm spacer for a 73mm cup (I can prob find one if required) if you're not using it with a BB mounted mech. In theory, you can use it on a 68mm cup with 3 x 2.5mm spacers, which is how it was sold to me, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you've considered the chainline implications.

The 42T Truvativ chainring is not included, as I wanted to hang onto it in case the replacement cranks I find have the same BCD. Neither are the chainring bolts.

I'm looking for £30 posted for them.

If you want any more pics or anything let me know. I have some clearer pics somewhere.
 
interested pending further discussion about the bottom bracket size.
i'd be putting this onto my FSR 98 (68mm shell width) you mention the spacers and chainline. I'd be using a single chainring up front (as per your image) and 8 speed at the back.. What sort of issues would there be?
 
Hi Twain,

I think your issues there would be that your front ring would have two spacers on that side of the bracket (and one on the non-drive side), so be an extra 5mm out. That means your single chain ring should have plenty of clearance from the chainstays, but it would probably be in line with either the smallest or second smallest sporcket on the back cassette, so when you had the largest sprocket (closest the the wheel) selected the chain would be at a reasonable angle.

I'm not an expert on these things, but that would be my concern.

I suppose if you were using normal size chairing bolts you could have the spacers between the crank and the chainring and that would give you a better line, or if you had a 64 BCD chainring it would attach where the granny ring goes, but I'm not sure if you would find a ring big enough.

Here's pictures of the other side of the crank if it helps:

Just realised I forgot to mention in the first post that the matching black crank bolts (not pictured) are included.
 
that would have been my next question!
also, could a chainring be mounted to the otherside of the largest chainring mount?? would there be room to mount a bashguard aswell??
