What do you think? If you didn't know, this adapter is so you can use a FF on BMX style cranks. For more pics go to: http://www.durgendesigns.com/ffadapter.html

the machined hole is a great idea. Bmx cranks are a bit overkill though :dunno:

excellent idea, I look forward to hearing a review from someone. I think the slot is an excellent real-world addition, I have never used "bmx style" cranks myself so cannot comment further but it looks great, simple is always good.

looks like a good idea, but i dont know how many people who ride trials actually use BMX cranks, I think TooSicks was the only one that I knew of

Mario runs the profile cranks and I think he could use that, it looks like a good adaptor to me but I dont know that much about bikes.

biketrials, i hope i dont sound like an ass, but I'm curious, do you develop bike parts for a living? or is it more of a hobby? just curious, seems like a pretty cool/difficult job

How much? Profile cranks in 160mm length, all cromo = no stripping out there!

B1105- "biketrials, i hope i dont sound like an ass, but I'm curious, do you develop bike parts for a living? or is it more of a hobby? just curious, seems like a pretty cool/difficult job"

It is something I do for more of a hobby if anything... One day it would be nice to make good money doing it, but I don't think that is going to happen anytime soon!

Anyways...

In the past I've went through ~10 pairs of cranks! Needless to say that was before the ISIS system.... Anyways I use steel "bmx style" cranks and that is why I made the adapter.... Believe it or not there are quite a few people who use this type of crank for the same reason as I.

I usually sell them for $30 for 1, $50 for 2.
