I'd like to use a square taper spindle with the existing cups/cones (they are in good shape). Where can I find a proper sized spindle? Any hints?
I used a 122mm Stronglight spindle in my daughter's FrankenSports project:
There's clearance for double chainrings when the crank is mounted. Single ring would also work fine.
As you can see, I have some extra spindles of this type. PM if you're interested in trying one.
