who's going to take a punt on these then?

I'd love to, but haven't got £350 spare.

by the looks of it, you can specify what you want on order.

they look great, I mean, what could go wrong?

(apart from possibly poor welds, little QC, flexy mcflexyface arms, misaligned threads and expensive or non existent returns policy?)

Welds look a bit dodgy to me, seen enough good looking Ti welds go bad to trust dodgy looking ones.
Id give em a wide berth.

I think the term is ‘Q factor’

Bobby welds do not necessarily a failure make. But there is risk involved, they are 1/3 the price of the original, what else would you expect?

I'd be tempted if I wanted light cranks that badly.
