  • Why do Campagnolo and Shimano not make modern track cranksets but still this old square taper/ octalink stuff? And why do people still use these on modern carbon track frames?

  • Tiny market not worth investing in
    Modern crank/BB performance differential (if it even exists) has next to no effect on results compared with all the gains to be had elsewhere
    Elite teams (GB/France/Germany/Aus) have their own crankset programmes, some proprietary to their frames, so mainstream component manufacturers have no opportunity to "race on Sunday, sell on Monday"
