FIVE cranks for ONE: Part out your Raleigh P.U.B
I have this pile of assorted cranks (technically six, but one is an orphaned arm):
And I really want the square-taper, Raleigh Heron pattern crank in black that you see below. To my knowledge, such a thing was ONLY offered on the 2006/7 Raleigh P.U.B.
The way I see it, I won't be able to get anyone to trade one of these without parting out a P.U.B. in the first place - so here's a chance to gain a gazillion cranks, and what is probably a direct bolt-in replacement in that black 130bcd crank in the lot.
And if you do have one, but this trade doesn't tickle your fancy, PM me...let's talk.

You wouldn't happen to have the silver variant though...would you?

I have only the ones from Sports models which I suspect you don't want.

I'm after the current square-taper adaptation of the old Heron crankset. Preferably in black, which was only offered on the P.U.B, but the 2019 US-market Raleigh Tourist (no relation to the old Tourist) and the current Raleigh (UK) Willow have them in silver:
Though I'd be open to any previous square taper adaptation, I'm not sure if such a thing existed before these.

I will take a look around, I had one of the newer Choppers that had the silver crank arms like that. I junked the frame but stripped it before I did, don't remember what I did with the cranks that were on it.

EDIT: Glenn hasn't found the cranks, and doesn't think he has them anymore. If anyone has a silver set off a Chopper, I'm listening.
Glenn, if the cranks survived, send me a PM. The Heron pattern on those Chopper cranks actually look a bit better. Not sure if my neighborhood painter could put some urethane black over the rust, but it's worth a shot.
They're 170's, right?
