I'm feeling "cranky"
Hi everyone, I wonder if any of the french aficianados out there can identify this crank.
122mm BCD, originally anodised finish (but it polished up nicely!)
The only markings were on the back of both arms and all it said basically was "made in France".
Hope someone recognises it.

The proprietary 122mm BCD is the giveaway -- that is a Stronglight unit. Had the BCD been 128mm, I would have confidently told you it was a Nervar.

I think it was made in B8.
Now if only I knew what that translates to.

The crankset look like the one that Cyclotoine matched up with a drive-side Gipiemme that I gave him.
I don't know the model, but I do know it is a Stronglight (can tell by design of stampings on back) and that it is not 57, 63, 80, 93, 101, 104, 105, 106 or 107.

I hope some one recognises them too, since I have a very simular set. Mine came with stronglight rings and are stamped with 'j4' and 'd4'
