I swapped my repop aerospeeds for a set of gen 2 bullseyes. Stu was going to give me some cash too, but I wouldn't take it as he did an amazing job of getting a profile BB machined up to fit a Bullseye spindle. He also sorted me out with some spacers and gave tips on installation. Discostu - you're a diamond geezer.

I've just bought a set of tatty gen 2 bullseye cranks on ebay for £370, but they need a complete overhaul and a BB. I'd say that swapping yours in the condition they are in (very nice) with a set of repop aerospeeds is a fair trade. Not for original aerospeeds though, as they are circa £1000 depending on condition.

One more thing - the cranks I've just bought also came with a new double ended retaining bolt that fits into each end of the crank spindle (like yours). Did they have anything like this originally, or is it just a modern aftermarket addition?
I'm having the non drive side of my hollow spindle filled in, welded secure, and then having it tapped so I can fit a screw in retaining bolt - just like the phase 2 gen 2 spindles

I don't think they did Andy, certainly not on the gen 1's. I personally don't like the look of it fitted.
