I just bought these interesting cranks.
They are custom made by a one man outfit in Minnesota. He is working with some local machinists and then does the finishing himself.

From his site - The 2XR FIT Crankset is his vision for what a variable length crank can be: simple, robust, and a range of useful crank lengths. Made for professional fitters, studios, physical therapy (PT), medical offices and crank length enthusiasts.
Color me a “crank length enthusiast” having worked my way down to 165mm and looking to explore shorter ones.
In addition he has regular cranksets available in all of the indicated lengths. Very modular and easy to swap to different chainrings and q -factors.
They are not cheap, but they look worth every penny. They are going on my S40 build. I look forward to sharing a review in a few weeks.
