I just built a "10 speed"

I think I want a new 165 crank - I hear they're smoother, and I'm 5'7" w/ a bad r knee.
Also, Also I need "long reach" brakes for 700c wheels, as I'm not planning on rebasing the rear brake bridge, or getting a new front fork. Any knowledge out there if these would be long enough?
Forget those! If you need long reach brakes, nutted mount too right? Just go with Tektro or even thos schmool DiaCompe centerpulls. I would have used these on my Hetcins in a second if they were the right reach.
