Did you guys see the pictures of the prototype CW Racing Pro Thunder cranks? Made by Bullseye Products. Limited run of 25 to 30 sets.
Now that is a lot of welding.....
No price as of yet but keep your eyes peeled....

Made by Bullseye for the retro CW bikes, aparantly the finished version will not have Bullseye stamped on the powerdisc.
-
That would be Jeff Haney's set then :shocked: they'll be sold out in no time regardless of $$$
-
They look a little untidy with all that welding for me.
Still the finished article hopefully will look better.
-
So a set of bullseye cranks with a cw plate slapped on the side for an extra few hundred dollars then ::)
-
Do look a bit OTT
-
A set of bullseye cranks with a cw logo on them with a few more hundred quid slapped on them?
Are you sure? Bullseye cranks go for shed loads of money. Last week an abused used set went on ebay for £420! :shocked:
-
that weld down the middle of em looks shite , look like " That ll do now chrome em" cranks , terrible
-
infact the weld all over em looks rough as fook

You are dead right there Wardy, those welds look like they could cut you they are so rough.
-
according to juan these arent the finished product :coolsmiley: but they aint gonna be cheap :'(
not too sure why there doing these cos im sure my old cw cranks were the same as anlums
-
I agree the welds do look shite. I would just hunt down a second generation bullseye crankset. Much nicer than those. :daumenhoch:

them welds need to go down the middle and round the cw plate , look nice cranks then as long as the rest of the welding aint done by Helen Keller
-
As a time served craftsman qualified welding engineer they are an utter mess... :shocked:
-
if they aint the finished product then why go get em blinged up and put em on show to the public , surely they know they look plop , are they just judging peeps reactions to see what little they have to do to em , passionless pile of crud , me nan could have done better and shes had a stroke infact thats what they should be called , CW stroke cranks
-
I think they looked better before they were chromed :-\
-
I thought like looked a lot better raw :-\
Looks to me like Bullseye had a crash with Diamondback and ended up as CW :idiot2:

he should be given his p45 then if he aint up to it , get someone who can , its about the brand not the welder surely and they aint gonna be cheap so they should be top notch

They do look rubbish, I would buy them if they were the same price as a new school set of cranks, but they'll be the same price as a new ta cruiser I reckon, I'd rather wait for some repop aerospeeds.

Why would you ? :idiot2: :LolLolLolLol:
Why not just buy decent n/s cranks
These CW are n/s and you say they look rubbish , but you'd buy them :idiot2: :D
Solvent abuse is bad for you Lucas :-\
Wardy's bang on the money ;) , madness this :crazy2:
People are sucked in by the fact it resembles an original hard to find part , just like ALL the repro bobbins
Poor quality , cheap produced , big profit , gullible buyers , happy manufacturer/seller >:D :police:
Just look at the Profile anniversary cranks ,,shoddy finishing ,, but sold loads :LolLolLolLol:
-
look fookin orrible to me.
stick with my profiles :)
-
They look horrible :( sorry but the they just do. The weld around the name plate just looks wrong, to big, to bright etc.
I'll bet they'll be hugely over priced as well. Just like the CW/REVCORE/???? frames.

Because new school cranks wouldn't look right on an old school build, but if it was for my new school bike I'd definitely go for the new school option.

You know,, what you mean :LolLolLolLol:
-
I mean, for like the $400 they will probably be they look rubbish compared to the aerospeeds. The cw cranks and hutch cranks are new school, but I wouldn't put them on a new school bike is what I meant :)
-
Why anyone would want a pair of these is beyond me :wtf:
-
I have a feeling most folk who have a "cosmic chome" jobbie will not be thinking tiwce about the $$ of these and will have them regardless. Even at $1000 a set the Yanks will snap these up.
-
The more I look at these cranks the uglier they get and I just cannot get past those god awful welds.
Which is strange because if you believed the US BMX sites, USA is the ONLY country who know how to weld correctly :LolLolLolLol: Don't forget you cannot trust any other country that builds a BMX as they break, 'Made in the USA' is the only way you can trust a product ::) :2funny:
-

the welds seem to have got worse :2funny:

They are definitely getting worse Wardy.

What's with the welds down the middle of the arms? They look like giant scars.
