Just ordered mine too, 180mm American for the Ruffell 'Goose.  I've got a few months to put some cash aside for them but I'm sure it'll be well worth it.

pkradman:
can get some real ones for that  :shocked:

Waxintaxin:
thats what i have been thinking , you can get some original ones ?
why would you want repopped ones
stuff is dropping in price big time and a set of gen2s are certainly doable for a little bit more cash

Almost!  There have been a few gripes over on VintageBMX about the price which, as some have pointed out, is more than the 24" Graphite Skyways, but I can see that, for a limited run, there is likely to be more work required to make the Profile cranks than the 24" Graphites.  I intend to use the Profiles on my 'Goose for racing, while still keeping it looking like a replica of Ruffell's bike.  The thing that puts me off getting a set of '80's Gen2's is that even Profile themselves have said they weren't all that strong.  I'd much rather put my faith in a set of new cranks, with modern manufacturing techniques and quality control, than in a set of 20+ year old cranks.  That's the only reason I want a set - Oldschool looks with newschool strength (hopefully!  :D)

Waxintaxin:
yep thats a good reason for sure  ;D

fair enough

Ill get my coat lol
