100% FAKEY FAKE. They look like Ofmega cranks that have been profiled and then stamped both front and rear. I think the best tell that these are fake are the "campy" stamps. First the one on the driveside seems to be closer to the spindle whole and the stamps are slightly rotated and closer to one side of the arm off center. Second is the huge cut-out for a pedal washer. best, Brandon"monkeyman"Ives Vancouver, B.C.
