I know. I liked them a lot when I first put them on the bike last fall, but the more I look at them the more I find myself wishing I'd gone with something in a polished silver. Since I first built it up I've kind of skewed towards the classic leather and polished silver look which the cranks no longer match. I'm stuck with them for the time being though. It's mine and it rides great, but I have been having some buyers remorse over the cranks. Do you guys think the pedals would look good if their red were just an accent color instead of being overloaded by the cranks?

Any suggestions on cranks for future modifications would be appreciated.
