eagle cranks
Exactly the rods I was referring to. Everyone knows the problem. When you talk to the Eagle clan, they tell you it's an isolated incident and no one else has had a problem. The quality of the crank, however, is more wide spread. I've had their top of the line forged cranks reworked before they could be used. One had .004" R/O on the center main. The customer drags the junk in the door, so he's the one footing the bill. Now you've got a 010/010 crank of questionable quality for a higher price than a Callies. Was it less expensive? Only the initial purchase, and I guess Eagle's warranty is free, at least to Eagle and their dealer. You can polish a turd all you want, but when you get done it's still a piece of shit.
The only time I would use an Eagle crank over another aftermarket is if the other choice was CAT, which, incidentally, is made by the same company as Eagle.
