Hi,
I am helping a friend source parts for his first fixed gear project. He recently purchased a campy mirage triple crank arm set on the cheap. Having only used Shimano/Sram compatible components thus far, I was unsure which size ISO bottom bracket would be best matched with these cranks to achieve a decent chainline. I realize that he could use spacers in the rear, but I know if it were my bike, I would prefer to not have to go that route, or at least keep the spacers to a minimum. A bit more info...the rear spacing on this bike is 120mm.
p.s. I have already checked to see what Sheldon had to say on the matter, and found very little info as it specifically relates to Campy BB's. If anyone has any info. I would greatly appreciate it.
