Cheap place to buy rods/crank

Post by AIbandit »

Where can I find a good deal on a 12CW crank?


I think I'm going with 4.0 rods but 4.0 and 4.2 rod suppliers would be great.


Thanks

I will give everybody a source here, but it's in Quebec, Canada, so I don't know if it's worth it with shipping and all. But that's where I found mine, 10/10 :

I've got a 20/30 12-wt crank that I ended up not using. Just needs bearings and you're set.

I got mine from RPM Machine IIRC. Can't remember what I paid for it but I know there was like a $130 core on it too. I want to say I paid a little over $300 for the crank, rod and bearing sets. Less the core that isn't a bad price.

I just saw a crank and R/M bearings from Carter performance for $229. No core!
