Title: Takagi Tourney Cranks are they old school?
Post by: ROX on June 17, 2008, 11:39 AM

I'm looking for a decent, era correct 3 piece crank in blue for my 1983 Firebird, and I've seen a place selling a NOS Tagaki Tourney crank assembly including the bottom bracket/bearing assembly for £125.00.

Opinons please as I haven't got a clue!

Cheers in advance!  :)

Yes, they'll fit.  They come with a US bottom bracket setup :daumenhoch:

Another Rad member has a blue set for sale on ebay right now...
