somewhat like old TA, but not it's 11 little bolts and older, 50's, design limiting shifter options.
I prefer Jan Heine's Rene Herse double crankset with 3 bolts that is being sold through Compass cycles. Some of the best cranks and flattest rings that run so true you won't have run outs when shifting at the extreme! I have a pair of Sugino Super Maxy cranks and thankfully for old school good quality forged cranks, it runs pretty true with little run out.
