Title: S&M Prince Albert Crank G4????
Post by: jimz360 on March 22, 2012, 08:22 PM
Can someone help me identify what generation these prince alberts are??? They're stamped 180 on the ends, i think they're generation 4 but need some expert opinions.

Spot on

Gen 2 and 3 didnt last much longer. The Crank Boss clips the inside wall of the arm tubing making a weak spot. Most of them snapped off there leaving a stubb of crank end on the spindle boss.  :crazy2:

Got them off a old Volume Hellion that had been powder coated, crank would'nt even move when i got it, so stripped it apart and they had put the crank on without the tube spacer and had overtightened them killing the bearings! New BB has made a world of difference, you can actually ride it now :D

Lol :2funny:, not sure if im selling just yet, may just keep them, just trying to get a rough idea on price.
But then again if i got a good price on them it would help out the other little project. Ahhhh i hate decisions :(

My guess would be £150-£200 if they're in good nick

Like i said you don't ask you don't get...  ;D

Gimme a shout if you decide you wanna sell...  :daumenhoch:

They'd finish off my 94 Dirtbike nicely...  :4_17_5:

As others have said ebay is your best bet if you're unsure on price but they'll pull your pants down with their fees...  :2gunsfiring_v1:
