Lol, they're probably fine. Logos on crank arms get worn through all the time by shoes or pedal straps rubbing against them during rotations.

Too many fatigue cycles on them, could explode any time w/o warning. RIP [MENTION=438014]RMoudatir[/MENTION]

Logos are totally worn through on the drive side. Those are load-bearing decals.

The BB doesn't have a single LBD visible.

You couldn't pay me to ride those.

When choosing a crucial component like a crankset, it's always best to put looks first.

Yeah, So when I went to my local bike shop yesterday to have the crank set installed since I didn't have the tools and they told me the BB was burnt out that I needed to replace it so I decided to purchase a new one then.

Fancy. It's a real shame you can only get their BBs from one dealer in the states officially. Their industrial bearings are readily available from your industrial supply source however :rolleyes:

I never realized their design incorporated roller bearings on the drive side either.
