Identical to Record except they say "Chorus" on them.

Yep. The 5th arm is behind the crank like on your Record.pq wrote:Really? I've had a couple of pairs of Chorus cranks over the years and they were a standard 5 arm design, unlike the Record which have 4 arms and use the crank as the 5th. None of my Chorus cranks were very recent, maybe they adopted the Record design later.

It's not just the drilling. The four holes on the spider are equal, but the fifth hole on the crank is further apart .................... or that's what I seem to think. I ain't taking the outer and middle off to check.
However ......... the inner seems to have "even" holes.

I could swear that the crank bolt is further out than the other four.
Not going to dismantle soon, but when I do, I'll check.
If I'm wrong, I will admit it.
