Hard to come by on their own mate , but now and again :daumenhoch:
There's a guy called Cuckoo on here and Museum (Lee) , he did excellent reproduction 400 BB's for about £75/£80 at the time .
I think he's in the Far east , he's a good fella :daumenhoch:

Thanks Christian :4_17_5: there not for a HLT crank or a set of 400's but something just as nice and rare too :-X 8)
Sounds like it could be a long search ::) :D Thanks for the pointers though , i'll try a wanted on here first and see what happens .
Do you know for sure or anybody else for that matter that the 400's axle measures 15mm across the flats ??
Thanks

i needed an axle for my redline 400s and searched for a couple of years before i found an original one, then about a week later cuckoo had them for sale. they look really nice too. i used a coke can to make small shims and a normal square taper axle till i found the correct one. worked fine too, it was nice and tight.
Discostu:
The alloy fusion cranks have a 15mm square taper.
I'm sure the group 1 steel cranks used the same bb and bearings. :daumenhoch:
