Outboard Bearing Cranks
I saw the Truvativ Omnium cranks for the first time last night.
Stiff and smooth and a great looking 144 chainring.
How long till we see Hollowtech II and Ultra-Torque in 144, can't be far away now that Truvativ have thrown down the gauntlet.

Damn Shimano
Doesn't look like we will be getting a 2-piece Shimano track crank any time soon. Japanes keirin rules state that they have to use 3-piece cranks, since Shimano are the only current NJS crank manufacturer they will keep making the 7401 and it doesn't make sense for them to produce two different crank designs 
Look on the bright side, the Truvativ Omnium cranks look stiff, strong and really well priced, got some on order at the LBS, unfortunately won't be here till september
