You are going to need a short spindle to get a decent chainline. Just how short depends on the crank that you use. I got away with reversing an asymetric spindle on one of mine. The other uses a track BB.
This confirms my suspisions about which I should aquire first, the BB set or crankset.
Reversing is a good idea but wouldn't the long end of the spindle create a gap between the left side of the BB and crank??? I'd try this but the frame originally came with a cottered crank. Why do I keep running into cottered cranks!!!!
