Well, I took OP at his word that 9/16” was confirmed, but it’s worth investigating the French if it’s in question. Since French is smaller diameter than English, worst case scenario is that you end up with a functioning crank that is now converted to English, bit I know whether that constitutes an upgrade is contentious.
