Lasco is a 'ticking time bomb?' The lascos I've seen are pretty nice, beefy 130bcd SS cranks, and wholesale in MTL for $80. They also seem very similar to Pake cranks. Maybe you have a different version, but I know several courriers who use them brakeless with no problems.

I have the Somas, which I understand to be just a rebadged, square taper Andel. They feel better than a 600ex road crank, but not $150 better. I've ridden Suginos and they felt about as good as the andels, for the price. If money is no object external bbs, for all their bad rep around here, are a noticable upgrade
