Ebco Eagle LSR-50 Left Crank - Diamond or Square Taper?

[Stitch-Up]

Hi guys

I need to replace the left (non drive) crank on my Ebco Eagle LSR-50. I'm informed it's 170mm long but unsure if the taper is square or diamond!

Does anyone know this info?

Cheers

John

Be careful, people still call a diamond a square taper. It's best to look at photos of the product. If you look at the inside face of the crank arm, you can see the square. Is it with corners in line with the arm like this one:

or with flats in line like this one:

Then take your pick by studying the pictures:
