I think Trackstar had a set of gold sugino 75's. I could be totally wrong but I swear I saw a set there.

You're thinking of the Sugino Grand Mightys which are more of a champaigne color.

yeah, i saw those, but they are 175mm. i think that'll be a bit too big... plus it looks like one of the arms are 'painted' gold to match the other. i have a feeling they might not look as good in person.

I got these on ebay, but I know I saw a link (edit: ask mikorp) to a online shop that carries them.

Pretty common on ebay and they go for 80-100 dollars. Mine are 165mm. I need a new BB to install them and I am in the process of trying to find the right spindle length. Anyone know?

there is no spindle long enough to mount the bmx ones on a track bike. it has to do with how far inset the taper is on the arms. have a set my self. work great on a bmx though..
