EDIT - Pulled the important info to the top of the page, added some pedals to the mix...
Having gotten some Sugino 75s, I no longer need my Dura Ace FC-7600 cranks, so looking to move them on.
Plenty of rub on the cranks, which has taken off the logo (worry-not, priceless NJS stamp on the inside is unharmed) and the threads are totally fine. HOWEVER, a long brakeless ride without tools (!) saw a creak turn into some dents on the tapers, so be aware that these are potentially going to creak. That said, I popped a little Loctite on the BB spindle, put them back on tight and left them for a few hours and that sorts the creaking for ages, when it returns, a re-application sorts the problem again. So, as I say, I'd grade these at 'posh-pub'/'branded beater' grade - perform fine (even without the Loctite, if you don't mind creaking) but look a little worn. My LBS also tells me you're likely to get rid of the creaking completely with a Dura Ace BB, 7610, I believe it was - a quick Google shows there's plenty of opinion about which BB to use with these, so I'll leave you to investigate further - I'd just go for some Loctite, personally.

I also have a pair of MKS Royal Nuevo pedals featuring the very same NJS stamp. In need of a clean but are in very good condition underneath a bit of grime. Looking for £70 for these. Pics to follow.
If someone wants both, let's call it £110 for the pair (plus shipping, if needed)
Parts are in Cambridge, but happy to ship at cost anywhere else...
