make your scooter go faster as your wallet is lighter

ive had a 60mm mec crank in various tuned lambrettas for a couple of years - never missed a beat - far superior to af imho with dubious pin tolerances on fit

now who was it that said most "dealer special" cranks come from the same source (af and broady excepted)

The casing needs to be grooved to clear the big end of the rod but can be done carefully with a die grinder etc.
