redline sugino 400 cranks standard shorty

[pro-lite]

just been offered a shed find standard shorty with redline 400 cranks it is very rusty
and what is value of cranks and are they any good as they have sugino on them
 as would like them for a prolite craig campbell if I ever find one .
can someone tell me how to put pics up as it is quite rusty sure you all would like to see.

If they have sugino stamped on them, then they are sugino 400's not Redline.

There's no physical difference, only that the Redlines stamped ones are slightly more desireble. Sugino made both, Redline sold their ones as Redline 400s. Sigino sold they ones slighly cheaper as Sugino 400s.

cheers mate shows rust up well just sent second pic of crank .

As for value, if your thinking of buying to restore & sell, in restored state the cranks would be worth between £200 - £300, as for the whole bike, in that state it must be worth a few 100, some good parts on there, not sure about the wheels, they look like steel the way they have rusted.

I'm also not sure of the price of the F&F, ask in the mid skool section, but it must be worth at least £150

Use wd-40 and foil on the rust, as long as it's not pitted or too deep, it will get all the rust off.

I'd have those cranks off you in that condition fella and do the work myself to get them tidy - not interested in re-chroming as I like "rider" condition stuff on my riders, just get the rust off them

Good find - pm me if you want to sell them or swap them for something

[pro-lite]

sorry for lack of reply chap wanted £200 for bike  and it is rusty as

[Spen69]

PM on the way mate

I'd give 250 for it as it stands...

Quick fifty for you if you can't be arsed....

fook the cranks,


thats a standard shorty.

unless its one of the "cyclesport  specials" but they look to be early "1 bashforks too.....

[gobshite]

at a guess, i'd say the stem could be a hoffman, maybe DK,

u brake looks like a shimano maybe, tyre looks to be khe lamello so the rear wheel might be ok,
front wheel looks to be off a cheapo 80's bike, is that an acs boa on the front?

any pics of the rear dropouts?

[pro-lite]

stem is dk  bars hoffman jump bars   headset tange  and rear wheel perigine 48  rear brake dia compe as are levers  and boa on front  I originally was interested for cranks only  are  these cranks any good  and what era are they from I remember early  redline cranks having titanium axles is this true ? and what would chroming cost be on cranks? thanks

[CD17]

No I don't think Redline Cranks had Titanium spindle, you can get them for Profile Cranks  If he wants £200 for it, then it is well worth it, you could restore it & you will have a really nice bike there

nice find well worth £200

cranks will cost around £30 to have stripped & re-chromed
