Bullseye crank question

(1/3) > >>

Hi all. I really like the look of bullseye cranks like these



I just have a few questions. Does anyone know if they ever came in chrome as well as colours? I'm thinking of fitting them to my next build which is an '84. Are these cranks era correct for the build? Any tips on what to look out for when buying a set of these? Are there any weak spots/parts that are impossible to get hold of? Hoping someone can help- thanks!

I'm 95% sure I read somewhere that they didn't do them in chrome as it weakened them  :-\

I was tempted to do mine in chrome but never got round to it (Wardy told me NO !)

Mine are chrome ;)
