Title: WHICH REDLINE FLIGHT CRANK
Post by: Tricky on September 15, 2006, 01:49 PM

Can anyone help me out on Redline Flight Cranks.....
Having never owned  one, now i am looking for one there seems to be a few different types..
401s being the most popular.
I need it to go on a 1982 Redline Proline II, so need a crank of that era really :)

If they are in short supply maybe i should just take what i can get...is there much difference in them?

Appeciate any advice
Cheers
Rich

400s or 401s are era correct for that build

full wrap around pedal boss is what you need to look for on the 401s as some later redline cranks look the same but are later editions and have a welded on pedal boss

thier was a thread a while ago that had pics of the different models
