Let's face it, at either end of the C&V social spectrum there's an outspoken class which constantly are at odds:

1) The big city flippers and hardcore bargain hunters who will get anything if it's a deal and nothing if it represents fair market value.

2) And the dyed in the wool connoisseurs who will pay real money for that authentic little part to complete a year long project.

Personally I'm bored stiff with the cheap-skate commentaries of the former, while the posts of the second group of folks usually have some value.
Off the chart with that one. I'll leave it there.

BTW, that's a nice crankset. Thanks Velo Orange for taking a risk making such a nice piece. For a low production, nice part, the price is attractive.
