I guess the question is who is the market? Most people looking for 110bcd double cranks have a few choices like the one from VO and Jitensha. If Riv wants to expand to others, good luck as those other people are looking at outboard bearing cranks - that's all the rage and what all the racer-types who are willing to pay $300+ for a crankset seek. Yes, you and I may not care, but the guys willing to spend $300+ for a crankset do. Good Luck!
