Patrick, Where have you been?! Yes, Look has its one-piece, carbon fiber (what else?!) Ashtabula-type crank on the market since about 2011: Zed 2 crankset: http://branfordbike.com/images/library/features/look_zed2crank_small_11_f.jpg http://www.bikerumor.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Praxis-Works-OEM-Chainrings-Look-Crankset-2.jpg Zed 3 crankset: http://www.lookcycle.com/media/catalog/product/cache/2/image/560x374/5e06319eda06f020e43594a9c230972d/z/3/z3_03.jpg http://www.lookcycle.com/media/catalog/product/cache/2/image/560x374/5e06319eda06f020e43594a9c230972d/z/3/z3_02.jpg I think you have to find a Look dealer to get more info. I did find Glory Cycles has the Zed 2 for $1250: http://glorycycles.com/look-zed-2-crankset/ So it's not cheap!
