EXCALIBUR ONE-PIECE CRANKS.
www.odysseybmx.com: Nearly everyone was riding one-piece cranks in the eighties, and the Excalibur had a reputation for being stronger than many of the other one-piece cranks that were on the market. Amazingly enough, production continued on the Excalibur through 2007, over twenty years after its initial introduction.

MXR Sealed Hubs

"Here's a real success story - 16-year-old Brian MOses, not the fastes racer in the world but stoked on BMX and very innovative, decided to use his sources to make a precision hub. He made two pairs - one for himself and one for friend Danny Millwee. Thus, it got in the mags. Soon after, the demands started puring in from all over the country. Now, only a year later, Moses and MXR have sold many top quality hubs. Sure, they might be expensive, but they're worth it!" ~ BMX Action, May 1988.

Supposedly 100 sets of Pro Model hubs and 25 sets of Mini Model hubs were produced. In 1987/88 they retailed for $390 per set. The equivalent Hutch Magnesium hubs were retailing for $110 per set.
