[Blue Manc]

Need a new chainset for my fixie and fancy a bit of bling, has anyone tried the anodised chainsets off ebay from Charlie the bike Monger ?

Or should I be abit more sensible and or Sugino or something

I personally wouldn't buy anything off ebay , as i don't trust it or paypal.
Plus I don't trust a lot of things on ebay not to be fakes. Although with them, they're not even branded so there's nothing for them to be a fake OF.
that said in all likeliness they're probably ok.

for an alternative this is the one i've got: miche primato track chainset

can't see any reason why you couldn't spray it or better still powder coat it if you want it blue. just make sure you cover the square taper/BBinterface and the pedal threads.

Charlie the bike monger is a proper shop. Give them a search on the internet.
As for the cranks, never seen them before, not sure how good they are. You could email/call them and ask.

Charlie the Bikemonger are good. No worries there.

The cranks are pretty good too. They're OEM and the same as On One, Andel, Soma, Iro etc. Decent quality, at least on a par (if not better) than the cheaper Sugino's if the comments on LFGSS are anything to go by.

Those Miche are nice too but at £90 they should be.
