Redline Flight Cranks (3rd Generation)
The half-wrapped single-pinch Redline Flight™ Cranks are regarded as the third (3rd) generation Redline Flight™ Cranks by oldschool BMX collectors.
Half-Wrapped refers to how the pedal and spindle bosses are connected to the crank arm. Half-wrapped cranks have the spindle boss completely wrapped by the crank arm while the pedal boss is welded onto the crank arm. Single-Pinch refers to there being a single pinch bolt securing the spindle boss to the spindle.

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.
