Cook Bros Racing Crank Hierarchy/ID

[Caj Remtiw]

F Cranks were the last design of CBR offered for sale. There was another derivation of the original "Dog Bone" design after them but the company opted not to market them.

Here is 2 pictures of them:

And do you know when the F-type went out of market?

LOL! The only answer I have is... When spline spindle cranks became more popular.

I'm sorry

I'm sorry but neither of these are F Type cranks. See photo attached or Google the F Type and you'll see plenty of examples.

He didn't say the cranks in the photos were F Type cranks. You should re-read what he wrote.

Hey guys,

Can anyone tell me what year the E Type crankset was released?

Thanks

I think it was 1996.

Maybe earlier, actually. There's a quote on Bike Pro about them that says:

At the moment, the arms are made only in a 175mm length, Cooks believes that they may introduce a 181mm version in 1995.

Someone on here will know.

Thanks everyone. I must admit I thought they were 95/96 based on photo's I've found. However, this 1993 CBR price list includes Type E cranks, but I wasn't convinced.
