And they are not track racing cranks. They are single speed cranks.

This is why everyone was asking why were you posting in the track cycling/racing forum.
Im sorry if this sounds a bit noobish, but im kinda new to it, so.. whats the difference between single speed and track cranks? I mean apart from the fact that the track crank is probably lighter and stiffer..

Funny when I saw 17 replies I thought there'd be 17 answers saying Dura Ace. (sighs) I guess my intellectual hegemony isn't quite complete.
BTW I wouldn't want to be anywhere near someone riding those chainrings on the track. They look like they'd flex like bastards and would be a dropped chain waiting to happen. Which means if you want do it all cranks you'll have to get something else.
Is there a rain on parade emoticon? I feel like I need one.
Why do you think the Paul cranks will flex all over the place? According to the manufacturer they are machined from pretty think, strong aluminium so they shouldnt be too flexy?
And why the dropped chain? Any experiences with them?

But of course I wont buy something which wont work well. And I didnt think of the dura ace track crank thats true. Googled them, they are really nice.

If Id say Campagnolo Record track crankset vs dura ace track crankset, which one would you get?
