Thanks for the info. Okay, so I was going to get a cheap crankset ($50) and discovered they're basically all junk. Decided to buy a nicer one(probably too nice for the bike haha) used on ebay. Was looking at SR, Sugino, etc. If I get a used Dura Ace crankset, would that help with any bottom bracket suggestions? I was checking out the Shimano UN55... what about Tange BBs? Right now my rear dropout spacing is like 123. Thinking about cold-setting it like this -

- to 110. then im thinking of giving a 110 shimano BB a shot.
