Well finally I've got my cook brothers fitted to the bike so off with the XTR and they're up for sale to fund a nice set of black middleburn rings. They're not in great condition cosmetically but work just fine, either need a bit of a respray or the paint stripping and polishing. Anyway here's some pics, if anyone needs better pics or of something more specific just give me a shout, oh they need a bit of a clean lol. Was thinking £60 posted? I'f I'm way out pricing wise somebody please let me know.

Not me. No thank you. It was lovely of you to ask but I thought I'd better make my intentions very clear without any of the usual 'umming and ahhing' that often accompanies this sort of question.

You know the sort of problems you get when somebody says 'dibs' then over the weekend their car falls apart and just as you've spent the money in your mind on shiny bling, they come back and say 'sorry my car exploded'. Then you put them back up and somebody says 'do you ship to Usbeckistania' - you think for a while and think, ok I will and sort out shipping and everything. Quote comes in a £8,000 and 60 day shipping time. After all that work you start to think 'is this really worth all the hassle??' as the chap politely turns you down.

After 6 months of 'bump' and witty 'up' comments, you do actually sell them and it all goes well. You sit back after purchasing the shiny bling you'd promised yourself some years earlier (how it feels).

Its all on the bike and as you sit and admire your work you notice a small hairline crack....

Aaaaaargh!

So, no, but thank you again for asking: Who wants to buy my XTR cranks? :wink:

Have you been sitting out in the sun for too long again? :P lol
 
Lol what have you got a hairline crack on?, I'm thinking maybe I don't even need to sell them as everytime I go on photobucket it says I'm the lucky winner of 10,000 pooooounds
 
Lol nah I wont be wanting them back I killed the bottom bracket for these so finally stopped being lazy and got my old hope ti fitted and my cooks. Erm length is if the marking on the crank arms are correct 176, oh and they're FC-M951
