Cranks on a T/A

[dannywhiteley]

Ok, my T/A is currently running shiny, blingy, modern twin pinch redlines (boo  ).  However, I also have a set of NOS Hanabishi 3 piece cranks that I am thinking of putting on it.  I do like the redlines, but in the pursuit of more era correctness I suppose the Hana's will have to go on it as I am not in the position to afford a set of single pinch redlines.

How would the hanabishis be viewed on a T/A?  Suitable and up to the standard or not?  They are era correct though are they not?

i posted something similar a couple of weeks ago about putting new twin pinches on my bike or a proper old school 3 piece and it worked out more expensive for the oldys but i felt more comfortable with that so i would go with the hanabishis,saying that though ive got twin pinch on my T/A but if i knew then what i know now i wouldnt as im still new to this in an old kind of way

1000% era correct.

They were good cranks bitd. In all of my old mags.

Probably get slated but i wouldnt run twin pinch flights on a TA.

I run 1 piece Takagi's on my 2 TA's.

Think I will put the Hana's on tomorrow and see what it looks like.
