Gt power series. Alloy
Gt profile
Fusion alloy
Peregrine.
Profile box cranks.

Not a massive amount of choice. And all sell for shed loads of money. :daumenhoch:

Post by: Dannywhac on March 21, 2012, 10:37 AM: S&M's weren't until 1994? But as OD say's - there's loads of types out there.

Also some of 'em aren't that expensive - the GT and Powerlite Profiles you can get on here now and again for £60 - 80 :)

Post by: Dannywhac on March 21, 2012, 10:53 AM: Pretty sure GT Profiles were out in the States in 1991 - in fact have a butchers here at RP's post:

I definitely remember seeing them first in the UK around then :)

The Powerlites may have been '92 though - can't remember. They still made both well into the 90's, and you could still get the odd pair of Powerlites in the early 2000's in some shops.

Post by: Dannywhac on March 21, 2012, 10:54 AM: Also forgot - don't go on Profile's own crank time-line - it's a bit like 23mag - can be a little bit off :)
Title: Re: What 3pc where about in 91?

Yeah - me too - I know I keep banging on about it, but someone sell me an S&S Tigertooth sprocket ;)

I've got a little 1989 project winging it's way to me and could do with a nice early sprocket......
