Yeah, but..... To my jaded eye, they look cheesy and not classic. Big old nasty etched logo (like yukky Chris King headsets), cheapo looking built in washer... They just do not look "vintage" (I know, I know...)

BTW, we have talked about these Arnold bolts before (or I am experiencing heavy duty Deja Vu) but I remember clearly, in-the-day, riders standing up to sprint and the gold heads of the Arnold bolts popping out to each side! Of course, you are SUPPOSED to tighten the crank arms with steel bolts, then remove them & replace with the Arnold units... Caveat emptor!
