Oh, is the threading about the pedals? I have french pedals, lovely leotard ones if that is the issue. Retapping is also not a problem. I have looked at the bikesmith making new hole thing and I would really rather find something the right size first. I am just worried about bottom brackets etc..Or am I just thinking about dreaded cottered cranks? They are vintage cranks, but not overly vintage. I recently saw a vintage set on a MAP randonneur, so somehow they got put on. The new Specialites TA options are a bit ugly. I do look on ebay and this is the first time I found nice looking TA's...
I have been riding all my life, always stock cranks which may have been shorter on my bikes in the past. 170 are too big for me, that is why I am looking. I have been having problems.
Less than 5'3'', 291/2" legs, and size 4-5 feet depending on the shoes I can find. My foot size alone really cries out for shorter cranks.
