Hi renaud,

Do you mean arrow engineering in Hinckley.

Around 8 miles away from were I am.

I've been round the factory, it's very nice.

And the up to date machinery makes fantastic con rods.

But there prices were around three times of a Phoenix.

You should get there details from there web site.

Re: Who would know ARROW PRECISION please?

Hi Renaud,

I have no problems recommending Arrows for crank and rods manufacture. We recently asked them to make a straight 8 counter balanced crank with an odd 2-4-2 split, nine main bearings and rods to suit. First class work, all super finished, minimal amount of material removed to make it balance.

It was not cheap as it's a one off, but I was taught by an old smith that work can be a) fast b) good or c) cheap, now pick two of em.

I have no connection to the firm other than being a satisfied customer.
