I've just asked after a set of cranks - will be interesting to see what it'd cost. Gold or purple then? ๐Ÿ™‚

gold crank purple chainrings ๐Ÿ™‚

Stevo: I hope they dont leak that would suck after the hassle, I bet hope just say that as anodising is one of their major marketing strategies. Have you got any pictures of yours

After market hope bling is crazy,
Res Caps x4 = 25
Levers x 2 = 40
Bore caps x 2 = 20
Tool X 1 = 10

95 quid I got the whole lot done including rebuild and postage for alot less than that including lots of other bits!! So if they dont leak we are all gravy. Maybe this is why hope says things like that!?

Buying new lever bodies was my back up plan too. The brakes seem to work very well, but I coloured them from new so dont have any previous use to compare them too.

Sorry Stevo, literally as soon as I was about to put them together I had to put my bike into storage as work sent me abroad. Hopefully going to be back in september and get it going for the winter. gutted I missed the summer!! Will send you pics then if you are still interested.
