Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Recommend me a crankset

$200-$300 range preferably with bb

I found a deal on a Cinelli Vigorelli frameset and decided to make my first build from the ground up.

As long as you can use 172.5's or 175's, this guy is selling 7710 Dura Ace cranks for $199 or $219 respectively - https://www.ebay.com/itm/Shimano-Dura...item416d23dc93

Black vig, sugi 75 or omniums. I like both, but omniums might look better.

White vig, tough call. I saw a lot of white vigs with black components when I was researching for myself.
