I think too, with the right equipment and mindset. It's a challenge for me, having not been riding since about 2011 until last May.

As for my cranks, from what those pics tell me (thanks for posting those!) mine looks most like that 93 -



- but the 52T's what bolts to the spindle's flange, the 40's carried by the spokes of the 52T.

I'll have to make up some metric circle templates, get an idea of the bolt circle diameters after lunch. Be warm enough to ride soon, maybe I'll save the measuring 'till after dark.
