I have 2 Penton crankshafts that I need help identifying,one is 61mm wide with 2 large holes in the crank webs  and other is 69mm wide with 2 large holes and  2  small holes in the web . l believe the one with 61mm wide is a 250 ,but not sure on the other, the connecting rod length seems to be the same, any help would be appreciated, thanks john.   I will try to post pictures of them.   No luck on posting pictures of them.

I talked to John on the phone about these cranks. In checking what I have in my inventory, we have determined that the 61mm wide crank is a 250. The 69mm wide crank is a 400.
The 400 cranks came with 64.5mm or 69mm long lower crank pins.
This is good information to remember, since the cranks by themselves look almost identical. Measuring the width of the crank where the crank pins are is a good way of determining what you have.
