He's probably thinking that he can make 20 and auction them off to the highest bidders.   >:D

WOW guys!
I am blown away by the response. Here is my basic plan for how this first round is going to work:
I am going to take pre-orders and prepayment to help me with set up costs and the cost of ordering the first production run. In return I will be offering a lower price than when I get this project up and running. This offer will only be extended to the NWKA and NCKA community.
I will have pricing firmed in the next couple of days as I am working on a few changes to the design. Stay tuned and I will keep you all updated.
Thanks!

sounds like a perfect "Kickstarter" project to me...get backers and based on how much funding comes in, decide how much to invest in time saving manufacturing stuff...cheers, roger

I was lucky enough to get an early prototype and LOVE them. Count me in for 2 pairs. If you're going to do longer sets, then make that 1 pair regular, 1 pair long (for the FL PA12).

The Hobie replacement pedal crank comes only as an "assembly" making the left and right different. They are about $45/each.

Since the solid stock pedal cranks will not include the pedal, are they either left or right?

Depending on price, I'm in for a pair.  I'm in salt water almost exclusively and although I rinse as a religion the NWKA reports of crank breakage are concerning.

Thanks!
