Now we were talking 3 main B cranks. I suppose that if you pony up enough money, they will make one off anything ?

Crower, on the other hand, says that they will make whatever crank you request...just to have the 'specs' available for what it is that you want.
I was thinking, that if enough guys said that they would step forward for a 5 main bearing... B sized crank, that I could see what Crower would charge.
But, hey, I concluded that that would be like 'herding cats' , eh
