I had a set of Aerozine cranks ceramic coated Shawnee style. Very nice. Kinda wish I'd gone for a graphite finish instead of my load white finish. But I'm prone to bad taste decisions .

This bike will probably be for sale quite soon.
Photos of it when new are here: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/200469/?offset=100#8624606
I can't say it's been kept in the best conditions, I rode it hard over winters, and store it on a balcony during summer. The winter wetness, and the summer heat and sun mean that it has weathered.
It's still a freaking blast to ride, so much fun. Absolutely love it, but I need to get a really affordable beater/commuter to solve the problem of needing to lock my bike on the street when I ride to work... and I already have a bike storage problem too (hence 1 bike always being on the balcony, in the winter the Robin Mather has that displeasure).
I'll be looking for £1,200 for it, not really willing to go lower than that... I should probably be asking for £1,500 for it, but I'm keen to solve my commuting problem sooner rather than later.

That's the site I found with a quick google, I do like the look of them. I don't mind taking a bit of material from the cranks, was thinking of doing the Jeff Jones look-a-like thing to them anyway (minus the drilled holes - mine are lx)
