Looks good. The seat looks like it's at a rather uncomfortable angle though.

I have a set of chrome profile cranks, they looked like crap on my bike so I sandblasted them to a raw finish, now they look good.

Cool cranks. I would have gotten the black ones but if you like silver those are good.
My friend likes running his bars like that too, it feels like crap IMO. But he can't manual anyway and he doesn't even try to get better at riding, so it doesn't really hurt anything.

I used to have a set of redline monster cranks, I sold them though, but during the year and a half I had them I didnt have any seriously trouble with them besides them creaking and having to be tightend once in a blue moon, but that happens to pretty much all cranks. They were pretty strong, I never bent them but they were heavy and if you are a hard rider I wouldnt really recommend them.
