i've seen some cranks for on ebay, in the Q&A is,

Q:  just wondering if the left crank arm has a chainring bolt aswell so they could be used with left side drive?

A:   no, sorry, the cranks are rhd only.

surely you just flip them round ? or not ?

Could affect your pedals if you use something like the dx's

I put the chain on the left before you could get LHD cranks (I built a rear hub to do it). I just put the crank arms on the wrong way, and swapped the pedal spindles over (easier to do on sealed bearing pedals). Some people say the pedals come loose more often but Ive never had this.

Trouth is, I have never got round to getting a LHD crank and I still run the crank arms the wrong way round.
