Sweet,
 I've only ever found 474's available from the US but, hit Costa up as he might have the pedals and crankage . Looks like he's downsizing his stash at the mo.

One of the best looking freestyle F+F of the 80's right there folks.

I'd love a chrome one in my collection, you'll have to let me know where your getting yours done and the £ ,.... gonna need deep pockets to kit it out up to spec. though.

I've got a set here you can have, £90 posted, outside of Ebay. But you will need 2 right pedals for them (at least I told ya)  :yahoo_silent:
