I have a 12g1505 crank that has been sat in grease for the last 12 years. I've just cleaned it up and the results are below. Do you think this will be an acceptable exchange crank for there: Reground, Ni – Temp, X-drilled, Wedged & I.C.E crank £435 - exchange basis crank?

As long as it's not royally goosed and can be reground, then yes

It seems OK to me but what do I know :)
I guess its worth a trip over to Med next weekend to see if they'll accept it. I'll take the cash for the exchange just in case :)

best people to ask are those who would be taking it in exchange
most usually say good crank taper required, thats about it

Absolutely Brett, but I thought I'd ask you guys before driving over there. If you guys would have said its a bag of shit I would have sourced another and then driven over. I'll call them in the week and pop over next Saturday *wink*
