Hi all, after a thread on here re suitable cranks for my GT186 kit build a mate offered to build a crank for me if I can get hold of a con rod that was suitable.
So, after much a googling and research it was decided that a RB Con rod 107mm would be the way to go as they get some great reviews on the forums.

My only slight concern is that it's arrived this morning and it's in a mazzuchelli box? I was always of the impression that mazzuchelli cranks weren't the best when it came to lambrettas although the vespa ones had a good rep.

Anyone else got any thoughts? It's just making me a little uneasy for some reason

Only trouble I've seen with Mazzy cranks is the big end bearing cages breaking up.The con rod should be ok for your use .
