I sent an email to Quarq, and asked if they were aware of any tandem compatible cranks that would work with a Quarq. I haven't gotten a response yet.

I'm betting you could use any of the Quarq cranks now available turned backwards for the captain's crank, and etiher get the pedal threads redone, or use locktite.

Stoker's crank might be more problematic.
