I have an older Raleigh frame (urban assault) and I am trying to bring it back to life.
Now the issue I am having is that is the crank set.
I know it is 68 English bb (proudly a 110) – now my major? is that I have a road crank set that has a 42 / 52 chain ring and no matter what spindle size I try to use - the chain ring hits the frame.
So how can I figure out what kind of crank set I need?
Also if this was a cross bred frame would that make a difference (maybe I need a mtb crank set instead)?
Thank you for any help,
John
