I had a sugino alloy 3pc that was just rubbish and wouldnt stay tight on the spindle.So I tried different 1 pc cranks that bent and in the end put a 1 pc off a burner- dont know what model- and had no trouble at all apart from having to tighten the bearings all the time.Heavy tho'.Although weight wasnt an issue all those years ago...  Depends what you want the bike for and how much you want to spend I guess.

i maybe wrong but all Burner 1 piece cranks were Sugino...i can remember mine like it was yesterday as i had to regreese the bearings every bloomin week!  :LolLolLolLol:

personally though i prefer the look and feel of 3 piece  :daumenhoch:
