Found One, Still Need One- Thanks Forum!: Triumph 2-piece crank

[danohallaron]

Looking for 2 2-piece Triumph cranks, which are proper for D2 forward. I do have a couple of cast cranks for trade or will purchase outright.

Just a question, what is a 2-piece crank? Picture would be great.

I believe he is referring to the crank construction where the shaft and crank throw are two separate pieces that were joined together, versus a crank made from a casting.

Got it, just never heard it called that way.
Is there any rhyme or reason for which crank is used on what model?

I looked at some of mine and
Fireside A, (3) Standard D's, Home F, Home B, Triumph F, Opera - All have 2 piece cranks
Fireside B, Triumph B, Standard F - All with cast cranks.

Inquiring minds, etc, etc

Been away for a few days. The two-piece crank, on the Triumph, replaced the cast crank starting with the D2, and included the D2, E, F and perhaps the G.

What are you willing ro pay for a nice 2 piece crank for a triumph

[danohallaron]

I always believe the seller sets the price. But will certainly pay market price. You can PM if you want to sell it. Thanks.

I totally agree. Too many times my fair offer is just a target to beat.

It was kind of you to even respond to the "offer".

I am confronted with this almost daily, folks wanting to sell one item or a complete collection. I've learned the hard way to walk away from any seller that won't quote a price.
