Is it just me or does it not seem like Eclat have a whole division for crank development?

Just curious, would a spline drive sprocket still work on these? It seems like it might if the slits are machined correctly.

Aren't there issues with 22mm axles and spline sprockets already?  Now throw this in the mix, who knows

ah yeah they did, i forgot about that. those things look so heinous though, aesthetically id choose smackdaddys over those. i think theyre meant for racing as well, rather than "freestyle"
