[RBW] Seeking Single Speed Crank Recomendations

[Joe Bernard]

I realize you're looking for general recommendations, but here's a nice example 
on the list of what Bill was discussing. 170 arms might be to short for you, 
but you can mount small rings on it.

Any 110 bcd crank can be run ss with a short enough bb and the ring either
on the outside or the inside position. Me, I use the old Pro 5 Vis which
are available new (expensive) and used (onlist, cheapish). And there are
track cranks out there that would work fine and are reasonably priced; I
can't recall who makes it, but there was a recent, retro-style single made
by a relatively well known vendor that was discussed on list, RBW or Bob,
not too long ago.

Heck, even a 130 bcd can be run single; my Redline Monocog 29er had a
Truvative (I think) road crank with a 42 t ring, and you can find and fit
38 t rings for these (used one, with a 52, on the Ram's 7410 crank).

[RBW] Seeking Single Speed Crank Recomendations

[Deacon Patrick]

Riding the Quickbeam fixed and only “shifting” the rear cog I am liking the 
idea of a single chainring crankset. Recommendations for best value bb/crankset 
over 20+ years?

Paul: they are discontinuing their crankset, so not considering it.

White Ind: pricy but a very attractive idea, either with their square taper or 
their MR30 cranks (will it last long enough to justify the risk of exclusivity 
in drivetrain/bb?)

Compass: Very pricy. 10 Year Warrantee. works for QB (I ride 44t), but doesn’t 
go low enough for my Hunqapillar (I’ll be 38t or 34t).

Others?

With abandon,
Patrick
