DMR Cranks, which model? Chieftain Mk3, what year were they available?

Hi all, I got these with a 2005 era DMR Rhythm? I'm playing with rebuilding my 2009/10 era one now. I need 170mm cranks and I've go these or chrome profiles. Nothing black apart from modern deore.
The DMR cranks took some brute force to dismantle and I'll probably need new bb parts and probably a tool. Awkwardly they are 20mm axle. Look good mind. The Profiles I have an outboard BB so will be a doddle to sort.

Had a look on the old Web sites but couldn't work out what these were exactly.

Cheers

Look like Chieftain MK3's

those look very smart but weight has always put me off getting a set of Cheiftans.

@reanimation did you finish that NS bikes build? With the shimano Zee’s?

Hiya, Thanks. yes!! And I'm really happy with it, was gonna do a little thread or I'll send you a pic! Need to get the protection on the Zees. I've moved onto sorting the others. Had an impulse posh wheel built for the 24ers.

Yep the DMR cranks are 960g and I think 1100g with the chainring on! Profiles are still 930 without crank bolts. I'd quite like another Zee for this!

What year did they come out? 2005 looks like tubular versions and all change shortly after.
