I already have the bike I am going to put the new wheels on, 80's kuwahara road frame, black, double butted tange, lugged blah blah blah. Black seatpost, black saddle, duralluminum nitto 40cm pista bars, nitto stem, black grips, dura-ace black cog/lockring, black spd pedals, etc. Now I just need to find a nice set of black crank arms, I already have a nice 144bcd sugino chainring, if I could only find matching arms...
Does anyone know how I would figure out spoke length?
The only black arms that I have found are FSA Track cranks and Chainring. They are very sharp looking But.... They use the ISIS bottom bracket which has been getting a lot of bad press about failure problems. I think I would wait until they sort the problems out before I committed.
