It could just be the winning lottery ticket (or maybe not). Italics are mine.

Apparently a fair price for these? I think I would take a whole Grail bike, rather than just a crank, for that price.

If the crank set includes the BB it may well be worth the asking price. They are highly prized in the BMX world. Smiles, MH

Might have a hard time finding a rear rim for the orange (started out red) one? Rear O.L.D. looks to be about 40mm - can't seem to find a rim that small size on Sheldon's chart?
Curious how it got that way?
Not a Dawes "Galaxy" or a CCM "Galaxy" but a "Galaxy Par Exellence" - Mitchell's Bike Blog: Red Galaxy- Par Excellence
what this bike would look like without the "modifications" - slightly wider rear spread.

Was $200 for the last few days, the $600 is wacky but the real wacky part takes a second to set in - "one of these kids is doing his own thing"
