What do you recon guys, look like it to me?  :-\

Yes i think so. They have an eccentric pedal boss so the position of the pedal can be varied lengths from the bb spindle. Weirdness.

That looks the nuts  :daumenhoch:

Sent the guy a low-ish offer as a starter, lets see what he says  :-\

Quietly hoping for a score here as the ad only mentions the araya rims and brakes with no mention of the cranks  ;)
