Bikes: +/-2000 Alp d'Huez (Dura Ace/Ultegra) Alloy Synapse disc (Ultegra), '84 de Rosa Eddie Merckx Super Prestige (Modified with 10sp Record mechs), Carbon Synapse disc (SRAM Red), '80-something Trek 540 (7sp AccuShift), Serotta Fierte (Ultegra)

Got some very specific advice from Brys at FSA...so shouting out for this company, for their customer support:

"The least expensive route is to simply get a set of 46/36t FSA chain rings. And swap out the 50/34t chain rings.
After that the sky limit since all crank models above the Vero com with a bb. Personally you can’t go wrong with the FSA Energy crankset. It comes in a 46/36t version and make sure it is the Mega Exo bb version. It’s light, durable and a great cyclo-cross crank."

Brys adds that the Energy crank needs a different BB:

FSA-BB6000
